RF Diode Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package variant against the datasheet outline drawings before ordering. Confirm that the E28X footprint matches the target PCB layout. Ensure thermal management supports the 100 mW CW power dissipation rating within the specified temperature range. Check for any recent revisions to the DC-0011413 document.

RF Diode Selection Notes

Select this model when low tangential signal sensitivity and high voltage sensitivity are required at 18 GHz. Compare total capacitance values across the MSS20 family to ensure impedance matching. Verify that the packaged electrical specifications meet the system's video bandwidth requirements.

RF Diode Part Context

This component belongs to the MSS20-xxx-x Series of zero-bias Schottky diodes manufactured by MACOM Technology Solutions. The series includes various frequency variants and packaging options such as B10D, C15, H27, and 0805-2 outlines.

RF Diode Replacement Considerations

MSS20-046-E28X: Lower frequency (18 GHz vs 18 GHz), higher TSS (-58 dBm). MSS20-050-E28X: Lower frequency (12 GHz), lower TSS (-58 dBm). MSS20-051-E28X: Lower frequency (12 GHz), same TSS (-59 dBm).
