MA2SV0100L

Overview

The MA2SV0100L is a silicon epitaxial planar variable capacitance diode designed for voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) applications. It features a maximum reverse voltage of 6 V and a junction temperature rating of 150 °C. Key electrical characteristics include a typical diode capacitance of 17.0 pF at 1 V reverse bias and 7.0 pF at 3 V, yielding a capacitance ratio of 2.2. The device exhibits low series resistance of 1.0 Ω at 470 MHz and minimal reverse current of 10 nA at 6 V. It is housed in the SSMini2-F2 package.

Feature Summary

• Provides good linearity and large capacitance-ratio in the C_D-V_R relation
• Features small series resistance r_D for high-frequency performance
• Utilizes SS-Mini type package allowing downsizing of equipment and automatic insertion through taping

Applications

• Voltage-controlled oscillators (VCO)
• General electronic equipment such as office equipment and household appliances
• Communications equipment and measuring instruments

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity by checking markings against official datasheets. Confirm package integrity and pin alignment before soldering. Ensure storage conditions comply with moisture sensitivity levels to prevent damage during handling and mounting processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring precise capacitance tuning with high linearity. Consider the 6 V reverse voltage limit and 150 °C junction temperature for thermal management. Verify that the SSMini2-F2 package dimensions fit the target PCB layout constraints.
