GC4400 High Voltage PIN Diodes
Microsemi CorporationDatasheet: GC4400 High Voltage PIN Diodes
The GC4400 series are high voltage, high power (cathode base) PIN diodes. These high resistivity silicon devices are passivated with silicon dioxide for high stability and reliability and have been proven by thousands of device hours in high reliability systems.
Each device can withstand storage temperatures from -65° to +200°C and will operate over the range from - 55° to +150°C. All devices meet or exceed military environmental specifications of MIL-S-19500.
The GC4400 series will operate typically with +50 Ma forward bias. Breakdown voltages are available up to 1000 volts.
Applications
The GC4400 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 or lobing switches, channel or antenna selection switches (telecommunications), duplexers (radar) and digital phase shifters (phased arrays).
The GC4400 series can be used in RF circuits as an on/off at moderate RF power levels.
Attenuator type applications include amplitude modulators, AGC attenuators, power levelers and level set attenuators.
