GC4212 Datasheet PDF

Microsemi GC4212

The GC4200 series are high speed (cathode base) PIN diodes made with high resistivity epitaxial silicon material. These diodes are passivated with silicon dioxide for high stability and reliability and have been proven by thousands of device hours in high reliability systems. These devices can withstand storage temperatures from -65°C to +200°C and will operate over the range from -55°C to +150°C.

DESCRIPTION

All devices meet or exceed military environmental specifications of MIL-PRF-19500. The GC4200 series will operate with as little as +10 mA forward bias. This series of diodes meets RoHS requirements per EU Directive 2002/95/EC. The standard terminal finish is gold unless otherwise specified. Consult the factory if you have special requirements.

APPLICATIONS

2B The GC4200 series can be used in RF circuits as an on/off element, as a switch, or as a current controlled resistor in attenuators extending over the frequency range from UHF through Ku band. Switch applications include high speed switches (ECM systems), TR switches, channel or antenna selection switches (telecommunications), duplexers (radar) and digital phase shifters (phased arrays). The GC4200 series are also used as passive and active limiters for low to moderate RF power levels. Attenuator type applications include amplitude modulators, AGC attenuators, power levelers and level set attenuators. ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM...
