ZETEX FSD270

FSD270
SILICON DUAL VARIABLE CAPACITANCE DIODE
SUMMARY
VBR=25V; IR=20nA; Cd=33pF(Nom)
DESCRIPTION
The FSD270 is a new hyperabrupt SOT23 packaged dual common cathode varactor
diode , offering users both compact circuit design and impressive performance
comprising tightly controlled CV characteristics, a capacitance of typically 33 pf @
2V,excellent phase noise performance and high Q of 200 min.
This superior performance in the VHF and UHF ranges has been optimised to meet
the high filtering requirements of a wide range of Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB)
module circuits , mobile radios, pagers, voltage controlled crystal oscillators
(VCXO) and temperature controlled crystal oscillators (TCXO).

Additional CV matching capability:
Zetex recognise that some applications ie filtering in digital audio receiver circuits, require these dual varactors
to be very tightly matched. To meet this requirement devices can be supplied tested into capacitance bands at the
2V condition.
Each ( TA ) reel will contain 3000 devices carrying only diodes tested into a single band and each device will have a
partmark identifying the capacitance band which they meet.
As this is a final test measurement customers will not have the option to specify a capacitance at the time of
ordering and will be obliged to accept the band into which the devices are tested.
- Purchase orders can be placed in multiples of 3000 units / reel for device type FSD270TA
- Samples can be obtained from Zetex Plc quoting device type #FSD270TA

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
FSD270 in Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB)
Circuits
Most textbook circuits show a single variable
capacitance diode in place of the FSD270. In practice
radio frequency oscillations in the tracking filters can
drive the single diode into conduction on peaks
increasing the bias voltage and giving rise to
undesirable harmonics. Common-cathode variable
capacitance diodes are used to overcome this problem.
The FSD270 dual common cathode device in the space
saving SOT23 package has been optimized for this
application. Zetex application note AN9 covers our
range of variable capacitance diodes and their
applications in detail.
Digital audio is set to dominate car radio and other
mobile radio applications. Most of the required
functions can be achieved with a single integrated
circuit. One parts of the circuit that are not integrated
are the Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) used in the
Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) channel selection circuit and
the tracking filters. Figure 1 shows the FSD270 dual
variable capacitance diode (also known as varactor or
tuner diode) in a DAB application.
