PLANAR BEAM LEAD PIN DIODES
FOR HIGH ISOLATION
Description:
Aeroflex / Metelics’ Planar Beam Lead PIN diodes pro-
vide low microwave capacitance with exceptional lead
strength. The high beam strength offers the users supe-
rior assembly yield. The Oxide / Nitride / Polyimide
Passivation offers high reliability with low reverse leak-
age current and high temperature performance.
