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...
