MACOM's MADS-001317-1500 single is a gallium
arsenide flip chip Schottky barrier diode.
This device is fabricated on OMCVD epitaxial
material using a process designed for high device
uniformity and extremely low parasitics.
This diode is fully passivated with silicon nitride
and has an additional layer of polyimide for
scratch protection. The protective coating prevents
damage to the junction during automated
or manual handling. The flip chip configuration
is suitable for pick and place insertion. This device
with can be attached with solder or conductive
epoxy. The high cutoff frequency of this
diode allows use through millimeter wave frequencies.
Typical applications include single
and double balanced mixers in PCN transceivers
and radios, police radar detectors, and automotive
radar detectors.
