MA46H120 Series GaAs Constant Gamma Flip-Chip Varactor Diode Rev. V2 Features · Constant Gamma for Linear Tuning · Low Parasitic Capacitance · High Q · Silicon Nitride Passivation · Polyimide Scratch Protection · Surface Mount Configuration Absolute Maximum Ratings 1,2 Description M/A-COM’s MA46H120 series is a gallium arsenide flip chip hyperabrupt varactor diode. These devices are fabricated on OMCVD epitaxial wafers using a process designed for high device uniformity and extremely low parasitics. The MA46H120 diodes are fully passivated with silicon nitride and have an additional layer of polyimide for scratch protection. The protective coatings prevent damage to the junction during automated or manual handling. The flip chip configuration is suitable for pick and place insertion. 1. Operating Temperature -40°C to +125°C Storage Temperature -65°C to +150°C Power Dissipation Mounting Temperature 2. 100 mW +235°C for 10 seconds Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause permanent damage to this device. M/A-COM does not recommend sustained operation near these survivability limits.
