GaAs MULTIPLIER DIODES ISIS Frequency Multiplier ® TM MIV41001 – MIV41013 Features ● High Output Powers — Over 5 W at 35 GHz ● High Efficiency ● 2 and 3 Stack Options ● High Cut-Off Frequency ● Low Thermal Resistance Applications ● Frequency Multipliers to Beyond 110 GHz ● High-Power mmW Transceivers ● mmW Phase Arrays ● Drivers for mm Power Amplifiers Description Microsemi’s ISIS frequency multiplier varactors are fabricated by epitaxially stacking the P-N junctions in GaAs to obtain high power at millimeter wave frequencies. The MIV series of ISIS multiplier diodes has been designed to have the high cut-off frequency to produce very low conversion loss when used in appropriately designed circuits. MSC offers 2 and 3 stacked devices to produce high CW power from 40– 110 GHz. CW power up to 3 W at 44 GHz (conversion loss <3 dB) and 1 W in W band (conversion loss <9 dB) are realizable with single devices. ISIS diodes are offered in the low parasitic (<10 fF), low thermal resistance M29 package and in other packages.
