HSMS-286C-TR1G

RF Diode Overview

The HSMS-286C-TR1G is a surface mount microwave Schottky detector diode from the HSMS-286x series, manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It features a series pair configuration housed in an SOT-323 package with lead code 'C'. The device operates optimally within the 915 MHz to 5.8 GHz frequency range. Key electrical specifications include a typical forward voltage of 250 mV minimum and 350 mV maximum at 1.0 mA, and a typical capacitance of 0.25 pF at 0 V reverse bias and 1 MHz. The component supports a peak inverse voltage of 4.0 V and a junction temperature up to 150°C.

RF Diode Feature Summary

• Optimized for high detection sensitivity across UHF to C-band frequencies
• Matched diodes within the package ensure consistent performance characteristics
• SOT-323 package provides miniature footprint for space-constrained designs

RF Diode Applications

• RFID and RF Tag applications
• Large signal detection circuits
• Modulation and RF to DC conversion systems
• Voltage doubling circuits

RF Diode Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against current manufacturer documentation to confirm tape and reel packaging details. Confirm RoHS compliance status as manufacturing processes may evolve. Check for end-of-life notifications or product change notices prior to final design approval to ensure long-term supply availability.

RF Diode Selection Notes

Select this component when a series pair configuration is required for voltage doubler or differential detector topologies. The SOT-323 package offers lower thermal resistance compared to SOT-23/143 variants. Ensure the design accounts for the 0.25 pF junction capacitance for impedance matching networks operating above 1 GHz.

RF Diode Part Context

This part belongs to the HSMS-286x family of surface mount microwave Schottky detector diodes. The family includes various configurations such as single diodes, common cathode, and high isolation pairs. The HSMS-286C specifically denotes the series pair variant within the SOT-323 package lineup, designed for cost-effective high-volume production.

RF Diode Replacement Considerations

HSMS-286C-BLK is available as a bulk packaging alternative within the same series. Other series members like HSMS-286B (single) or HSMS-286E (common anode) share similar electrical characteristics but differ in internal configuration and pinout.
