GaAs Abrupt Varactor Diodes
The Aeroflex / Metelics MGV series of abrupt varactor diodes feature passivated mesa construction for low leakage and excellent post tuning drift. These diodes will find application in tunable filters and oscillators up to 40 GHz. Optimum performance is obtained using die however packaged devices are available as well diodes screened per MIL-PRF-19500 and
MIL-PRF-38534. Contact your representative for these and other options.
- Passivated Mesa Construction
- Applications in tunable filters and
oscillators up to 40 GHz.
