HSMS-286C-TR2G

RF Diode Overview

The HSMS-286C-TR2G is a surface mount microwave Schottky detector diode from the HSMS-286x family, manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It features a series pair configuration housed in a miniature SOT-323 (SC-70) package with three leads. Designed for operation between 915 MHz and 5.8 GHz, it offers high detection sensitivity of up to 50 mV/µW at 915 MHz, 35 mV/µW at 2.45 GHz, and 25 mV/µW at 5.80 GHz. The device has a typical forward voltage of 250 mV minimum and 350 mV maximum at 1.0 mA, with a capacitance of 0.25 pF at 0 V reverse bias. It supports a peak inverse voltage of 4.0 V and operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C.

RF Diode Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm the specific ordering suffix matches the required tape and reel packaging format. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if lead-free variants are specified for the production environment.

RF Diode Selection Notes

Select this part for designs requiring matched series diodes in a compact footprint. The SOT-323 package provides better thermal conductivity than SOT-23 alternatives. Consider the 4.0 V peak inverse voltage rating when designing for high-power environments to prevent junction damage.

RF Diode Part Context

This component belongs to the HSMS-286x family of DC biased detector diodes. The family includes various configurations such as single diodes, common anode/cathode pairs, and high-isolation unconnected pairs. The HSMS-286C specifically utilizes the series pair topology within the SOT-323 package form factor.

RF Diode Replacement Considerations

The HSMS-286B serves as a single diode alternative within the same package. For identical series pair functionality in the SOT-323 package, verify availability of other family members. Cross-reference pinouts carefully when substituting different configurations within the HSMS-286x series.
