LOW & MEDIUM VOLTAGE PIN DIODE: 30 to 250 V
General information
Applications
The most common uses of these devices are fast switching, attenuation and limiting. They operate at
frequencies from a few MHz to 100GHz.
In switching applications, e.g. timing digital bit streams, these PIN diodes support signal power levels
below 30 W, up to 100GHz. Thin I layers, from 1 to 50 µm, and passivated mesa technology in chip configurations, yield very low junction capacitance (Cj), i.e. below 0.025pF.
As attenuators, e.g. in Automatic Gain Control (AGC) circuits, these PIN diodes are manufactured with
a proprietary technology.This technology optimizes the relationship between Cj and RSF (Forward Series Resistance), offering a high Minority Carrier Lifetime τl, which minimizes signal distortion.
In limiting applications (e.g. passive protection for receivers), these PIN diodes operate as power dependent variable resistors.

HIGH VOLTAGE PIN DIODES: 500 V to 2000 V Vbr
General information
Description
The controlling element of a PIN diode is its Intrinsic (l) layer. The diode itself is a sandwich structure,
i.e. a high resistivity l layer between highly doped layers of P and N materials.
With negative bias on the l layer, the PIN diode exhibits very high parallel resistance, e.g. acting as a
switch in the OFF position. A positive bias causes the diode to conduct, with very low series resistance.
Applications
These devices are most often used to control Radio Frequency (RF) and microwave signals.
Typically, high voltage PIN diodes are found in high power switches and phase shifters.
Chelton Telecom & Microwave high voltage PIN diode products are designed for very high reliability,
high power handling capabilities, high isolation, and low signal distortion, especially in the HF and VHF
bands.
High power multithrow switch modules are available for frequencies in the 1MHz to 1GHz range.
All high voltage PIN diode products can be configured on chips or in various packages: e.g.
series, shunt, flat mount, stud mount, surface mount (SMD) and (on request) non-magnetic.

ATTENUATOR PIN DIODES SERIE
Description
Applications
Chelton Telecom & Microwave uses its proprietary technology to manufacture its silicon PIN
diodes in plastic and ceramic serie.
Typical applications include variable RF att e n u a t o rs
and AGC (Automatic Gain Control) circuits,
from MHz to several GHz.
This product family is designed for a low cost,
medium to high volume market that may be supplied in tape and reel for automated pick and
place assembly on surface mount circuit boards.
The use of this technology eliminates wire bonding on to the chips.
The attenuator PIN diode uses properties of variation
of forward series resistance versus the DC
forward bias current. In order to obtain the best
dynamic range, a single diode attenuator may be
used in series or shunt configuration or designed
as a multiple diode circuit (T or p circuit), where
the device may be matched through the attenuation range.
Note: To reduce the distortion, it is necessary to
verify and design with the following formula:

SILICON PIN DIODES
Description
These PIN diodes are manufactured in a square package (SMD) for surface mount applications.
These packages utilize ceramic technology with low inductance and axial terminations.
This design simplifies automatic pick and place induxing and assembly. The termination contacts are
tin lead plated for vapor reflow circuit board soldering on Printed Circuit Board.
Applications
These diodes are particularly suited for applications in frequency hopping radios, low loss, low distortion
and filters in HF, VHF and UHF frequencies.
NON MAGNETIC SQUARE CERAMIC PACKAGE
The properties of non magnetic prevent interference in the magnetic field of the imaging system.
The chip inside is passivated to ensure high reliability and very low leakage. These diodes ensure high
power switching at frequencies from 1MHz to several GHz. This package utilizies ceramic package
technologie with low inductance and axial terminations. The design simplifies automatic pick and
place indexing and assembly.
The termination contacts are tin plated for vapor or reflow circuit board soldering. The active area
is a PIN high power glass passivated chip which can be designed to Customer specifications.
Applications
Chelton Telecom & Microwave non-magnetic diodes are particularly suitable for Magnetic
Resonance Imaging applications. The maximum operating breakdown voltage is 1200V. Several
values of total capacitance are available (beginning at 0.40 pF), together with a low forward
series resistance.
These devices are characterized for high power handling, low loss and low distortion (long carrier l i f etime design). The electrical properties are ideal for use in RF coils which must produce
a homogeneous electromagnetic field in the MRI system for frequencies from a few MHz to over few
100MHz.
Package with axial lead are available on request.

PLASTIC PACKAGE SURFACE MOUNT SWITCHING
AND ATTENUATOR SILICON PIN DIODES
Description
Chelton Telecom & Microwave uses its proprietary technology to manufacture its silicon PIN diodes in
plastic package.
This product family is designed for a low cost, medium to high volume market that may be supplied
in tape and reel for automated pick and place assembly on surface mount circuit boards. The use of
this technology eliminates wire bonding on to the chips.
Applications
The DH50XXX PIN diodes series are offered in a large selection of capacitance range (0.3pF to 1.2pF)
and breakdown voltage (35V to 200V). They provide low loss (low series resistance), low switching
time and low switching current.
Chelton Telecom & Microwave diodes are designed to cover a broad range of CW low power (up to
2W), medium peak power, RF and microwave applications (up to 3GHz).
Main applications include: SPST and SPDT switches, antenna (Wireless Communication Systems) and
filter switches, phase shifters.
Note: To lower the distortion, it is necessary to design with the following formula:

PLASTIC PACKAGE PIN DIODE SOLDERING REFLOW
RECOMMENDATIONS
Reflow Profile
Convection/ IR reflow with SnPB eutectic in belt furnace is recommended with the following stages:
- Preheat: 25°C to 100-150°C in 60-120s
- Ramp-up to 183°C @ 3°C/sec max.
- Peak temperature 240°C +0/-5°C DURING 10-30S
- Time above 183°C: 60-150S
- Ramp down: 6°C/sec max
A typical profile is given below:
Rework precautions
In SnPB solder eutectic is used, the solder joints melt above 183°C. Rework tools, process and temperature profiles are customer specific and should be characterized for optimum results. Ideally the
temperature profile for part removal should be the same as the reflow profile.
In any case, heating rate should not exceed 5°C/sec.

STEP RECOVERY DIODES AND MULTIPLIER
Description
A Step Recovery Diode (SRD) generates pulses that can be used to multiply frequencies and to set up
reference points, e.g. for synchronizing test instruments.
This device operates by alternately producing and consuming a charge, based on the frequency of its
input signal. During forward bias, the SRD conducts and builds up its charge. During reverse bias, the
SRD maintains conduction by consuming its charge. When the charge has been fully consumed, the
SRD snaps off, i.e. very quickly reverts to zero conduction.
This device acts as a switch, controlling current flow by alternately storing and releasing its charge,
forming pulses at a repetition rate equal to the frequency of its input.
The output of a Step Recovery Diode is most often used in two ways:
• a pulse train can be applied to resonant circuits, which provides output power at a frequency
above that of the original input,
• a pulse train can be used to develop a series of frequencies at multiples of the original input
frequencies.
Typical applications of Step Recovery Diodes include oscillators, power transmitters and drivers,
for telecommunications, telemetry, radar and test equipment.
Multiplier varactors
A multiplier varactor is capable of multiplying power.
Packages are designed to dissipate the power yield Power out
Power in
(
As an option, packages can hold from 2 to 4 chips, to increase input power upon Customer
request.
In choosing a SRD or a multiplier diode, the significant characteristics include:
• Output Frequency (fo)
• Breakdown Voltage (VBR)
• Junction Capacitance (Cj)
• Minority Carrier Lifetime (τl)
• Snap-off Time (tso)
• Thermal Resistance (Rth)
• Output Power (Po)
