MA26V2200A

Overview

The MA26V2200A is a silicon epitaxial planar variable capacitance diode designed for Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) applications. It operates with a maximum reverse voltage of 6 V and a junction temperature rating of 125 °C. At 4 V reverse bias and 1 MHz, the typical capacitance is 7.6 pF, yielding a capacitance ratio of 2.62 between 1 V and 4 V. The device features low series resistance of 0.30 Ω at 470 MHz and minimal reverse current of 10 nA at 5 V. It is housed in an ML3-N2 surface-mount package.

Feature Summary

• Provides good linearity and large capacitance-ratio in the CD-VR relation
• Features small series resistance rD

Applications

• Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCO)

Procurement Notes

Verify component status before design finalization as this part may be discontinued or subject to maintenance schedules. Confirm RoHS compliance and specific datasheet revisions directly with Panasonic Industry. Ensure all absolute maximum ratings are strictly observed during operation to prevent device failure.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high capacitance ratios and low series resistance are required for RF tuning circuits. Verify that the 6 V reverse voltage limit accommodates the circuit's peak operating conditions. Consider the ML3-N2 package dimensions for PCB layout constraints.
