MELF PIN Diodes
MMP7000-127 Series Datasheet
Description
The MMP7000-127 MELF PIN diode series is manufactured using Aerofex / Metelics’ proprietary diode
process which optimizes the anode and cathode bonding area of the diode to the adjacent heat
spreading metal posts within the ceramic package. This unique geometry provides lower electrical and
thermal resistance within the surface mount package to provide higher average power performance to
comparable surface mount diode packages.
With lower Thermal Resistance (< 20 ºC/W), RF C.W. incident power levels of + 50 dBm and RF peak
incident power levels of + 60 dBm are very achievable in higher power UHF cold switching applications.
The low series resistance (< 1.0 Ω), coupled with the longer minority carrier lifetime, (> 8 μS), provides
better IIP3 distortion values > + 70 dBm, for SP2T Tx-Rx Switches.
These devices are hermetically sealed and are constructed with materials to meet the stringent
requirements for commercial and military applications. The devices are RoHS compliant.
Applications
These diodes are designed to be used in High Average Power Switch and Attenuator applications,
operating from 1 MHz to 1 GHz at Incident Power levels of 100 W Average Power and 1 KW Peak Power.
These devices are durable, reliable, and are capable of meeting all military, commercial, and industrial
applications.
Environmental Capabilities
This diode series is capable of meeting the environmental requirements of MIL-STD-750.
ESD and Moisture Sensitivity Level Rating
PIN diodes are susceptible to ESD conditions as with all semiconductors. The ESD rating for these
devices is Class 1A, HBM. The moisture sensitivity level rating for this device is MSL1.
