MA4P

  The semiconductor technology utilized in the HIPAX family draws on M/A-COM's substantial experience in PIN diode design. This results in thick intrinsic region PIN diodes specified with low resistance, low capacitance and long carrier lifetime parameters.

  M/A-COM's HIPAX PIN diodes MA4P are designed for service in switch and attenuator applications requiring high power handling and low distortion. HIPAX PIN diodes incorpo-rate a fully passivated PIN diode chip resulting in extremely low reverse leakage current. all high voltage HIPAX PIN diodes are specified at 1 A reverse current at the voltage rating. The chip is full face bonded to refrac-tory metal pins on both anode and cathode. The result is a low loss PIN diode with low thermal resistance due to symmetrical thermal paths.

  HIPAX PIN diodes MA4P are packaged in hermetically sealed ceramic enclosures at temperatures exceeding 300°C. Package options include: axial leaded and surface mount packages that have a square, nonrollable outline.
