GC1500-02

Overview

The GC1500-02 is a silicon abrupt junction tuning varactor diode from the GC1500 series, designed for VHF to Ku Band applications. It features a minimum breakdown voltage of 30V at 10 uA and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. The device provides a nominal capacitance (CT-4) of 0.8 pF with a tolerance of ±10%. At -4V and 50 MHz, it achieves a minimum quality factor of 3900 and a capacitance ratio (C0/C-30) of 3.3. Standard terminal finish is gold-plated.

Feature Summary

Silicon abrupt junction construction optimized for high Q and low series resistance
RoHS compliant manufacturing process
Gold-plated terminations as standard

Applications

VHF to Ku Band tuning circuits
Voltage Variable Filters (VVF)
Phase shifters
Low phase noise voltage controlled oscillators

Procurement Notes

Verify specific ordering suffixes when purchasing, as they determine the mechanical case style. Confirm current factory availability directly with Microchip Technology or authorized distributors, as lead times may vary. Ensure ESD precautions are observed during handling due to component sensitivity.

Selection Notes

Select based on required capacitance values ranging from 0.4 pF to 10.0 pF across the series. Consider the trade-off between Quality Factor and capacitance ratio for specific frequency bands. Verify package style requirements against application constraints, noting that Style 00 is chip form only.

Part Context

This component belongs to the GC1500 series of control devices manufactured by Microsemi (now part of Microchip Technology). The series offers a wide selection of capacitance values tailored for microwave and RF tuning applications requiring high performance and low loss characteristics.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the manufacturer for alternative part numbers if specific case styles or custom mechanical configurations are required. Cross-referencing should focus on matching breakdown voltage, capacitance tolerance, and operating temperature ranges.
