CD6916

Overview

The CD6916 is a single Schottky diode manufactured by Microchip Technology, designed for high-frequency applications. It is supplied as a bare die in surface mount configuration. The component features a maximum reverse voltage of 40 V and a forward current rating of 10 mA. This discrete semiconductor device is intended for integration into custom circuits requiring low-loss rectification or signal detection at elevated frequencies.

Feature Summary

• Schottky barrier construction for low forward voltage drop
• Bare die format for custom packaging integration
• Optimized for high-frequency operation

Applications

• High-frequency rectification circuits
• Signal detection systems
• Custom integrated circuit input stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package type and handling requirements for bare die components before procurement. Ensure that your assembly process supports the mounting of exposed dies. Confirm that the 40 V reverse voltage and 10 mA current ratings meet your circuit design specifications. Check for any specific storage conditions required to maintain die integrity prior to bonding.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small form factor and high-speed switching are required. The bare die format allows for flexible integration into proprietary packages. Ensure that thermal management strategies account for the lack of a standard external lead frame. Verify compatibility with your wire bonding or flip-chip assembly equipment.

Part Context

This part belongs to Microchip Technology's discrete semiconductor portfolio, specifically within the Schottky diodes category. It represents a solution for designers needing compact, high-performance rectification elements that can be embedded directly into larger systems or custom modules rather than using standard packaged components.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Due to the bare die nature and specific electrical characteristics, direct pin-for-pin replacements may not exist. Evaluate alternative Schottky diodes based on voltage, current, and frequency performance if integration flexibility allows.
