Planar Back (Tunnel) Diodes MBD Series Description Features The MDB series of back (tunnel) diodes are fabricated on germanium substrates using passivated, planar construction and gold metallization for reliable operation up to +110 C. Unlike the standard tunnel diode IP is minimized for detector operation and offered in five nominal values with varying degrees of sensitivity and video impedance. The back detector is generally operated with zero bias and is known for its exellent temperature stability and fast video rise times. * * * * Zero bias operation Exellent temperature stability Low Video Impedance Screening per MIL-PRF-19500 and MIL-PRF-35834 available.
