www.MICROSEMI.com
Our EPSM packaged devices are designed for the most demanding
commercial and Military requirements where the inconsistent
performance inherent in plastic surface mount packages cannot be
tolerated. These package styles extend the surface mount
construction format to 6 GHz for high performance wireless
applications. Select varactors from three families of C/V curves for
designs through 6 GHz. They are available in multiple chip
configuration as well as outlines which directly replace SOT23 and
SOD323 devices. Other devices and values are always available.
Contact our applications engineering department for more details.
 Wide Range of Capacitance
 Mil Grade Ceramic/Epoxy
Amalgam
 Tape & Reel Available for Pick and
Place Assembly
APPLICATIONS
1
 RoHS Compliant
Specify EPSM package style 450A or 454. For 3 terminal style 454,
refer to configuration page. Example: GC1503-454-4 is a common
cathode pair of abrupt junction varactors with 1.5 pF capacitance
@4V (per device); for the 2 terminal style 450A, refer to the outline
dimension table. Example: GC1503-450A is a single abrupt junction
varactor with 1.5 pF capacitance at 4V in an 0604 footprint.
APPLICATIONS/BENEFITS

MECHANICAL OPTIONS
www.MICROSEMI.com
EPSM products are available in a broad range of mechanical configurations. The standard package style is the 450
series. This series has several sizes available to accommodate the internal chip configurations. The 450A is the most
common configuration for single diode applications. The 454 series package style is a three terminal configuration
designed to accommodate 2 chips for ‘T” and common anode/cathode designs. With uniform ‘flat-top’ construction, the
450 series of EPSM products are ideally suited for tape and reel / automated assembly.
The 150 series of EPSM products have a ‘glob-top’ construction and are traditionally used in smaller volume
applications.
PACKAGE STYLE 150X
PACKAGE STYE 450X
PACKAGE STYLE 154
PACKAGE STYPE 454
MECHANICAL
Packages are designed with wrap-around metalized castellations for superior assembly results.
