MA2SV0200L

Overview

The MA2SV0200L is a silicon epitaxial planar variable capacitance diode designed for Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) applications. It features good linearity and a large capacitance ratio in the C_D versus V_R relationship, alongside small series resistance. The device operates within a reverse voltage rating of 6V and a junction temperature up to 150°C. Key electrical characteristics include a typical diode capacitance of 20.0 pF at 1V reverse bias and 9.0 pF at 4V reverse bias, both measured at 1 MHz. The capacitance ratio typically ranges from 2.1 to 2.6. Series resistance is specified as 0.3 Ω at 470 MHz under 4V reverse bias.

Feature Summary

• Optimized for VCO applications with high linearity and significant capacitance variation relative to reverse voltage changes.
• Utilizes an SS-Mini type package to facilitate equipment downsizing and enable automatic insertion via taping systems.

Applications

• Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCO)
• General electronic equipment
• Communications equipment
