The diodes are come in various chip configurations and

are available as single diodes, series tees (ST), series tee

reverse (STR), common cathode pairs (CK), common

anode pairs (CA), and unconnected pairs in the respective

featured packages.

M/A-COM’s PIN diodes are available in the SOT-23 (case

style 287), the SOT-143 (case style 1068), the SOT-323/

SC-70 (3L) (case style 1146), the SOD-323 (case style

1141), and the SC-79 (case style 1279) packages. These

packages are supplied on tape and reel for automatic pick

and place assembly. The tape and reel suffix designation

is a “T” at the end of the part number.

Description and Applications

M/A-COM Technology Solutions offers silicon PIN diodes

in five standard, low cost, surface mount plastic packages

for use as switches and attenuators. The diodes are

offered with standard Sn/Pb plating, as well as with 100%

matte Sn plating on our RoHS compliant devices. These

PIN diodes feature a variety of I-region lengths resulting in

lower resistance, and lower capacitance devices for

various microwave control circuit applications.

The MA4P275 / MA4P7436 / MADP-007436 series offer

the lowest series resistance for best performance as low

loss series switches and high isolation shunt switches.

The MA4P789 / MA4P7433 / MADP-007433 series have

the lowest capacitance and offers the highest isolation in

series and series-shunt switches through 3GHz.

The MA4P282 / MA4P7447 / MADP-007155 series, the

MA4P274 / MA4P7455 / MADP-007455 series and the

MADP-007448 series are general purpose PIN diodes

useful as either switches or attenuators.

The MA4P277 / MA4P7437 / MADP-007437 series and

MA4P278 / MA4P7438 / MADP-007438 series device

have thicker intrinsic regions to provide lower distortion in

attenuator circuits.

The MA4P290/MADP-007167 series devices have the

thickest I-Region, offering the lowest distortion and highest

IP3 for current controlled attenuator circuits. These

devices are ideal for AGC functions for infrastructure and
