RF Diode Procurement Notes

Verify the active supply status before procurement, as the component is listed under discontinuation procedures. Confirm the specific ordering suffix matches the required packaging quantity and RoHS compliance. Cross-reference the datasheet version to ensure compatibility with existing design parameters. Contact the manufacturer or authorized distributors for final purchase availability and last-time buy information.

RF Diode Selection Notes

Select this component when a 30 V reverse voltage rating and 50 mA forward current are sufficient for the RF application. Consider the HMD8 package size constraints for PCB layout. Evaluate the 0.45 pF capacitance requirement for high-frequency performance. Compare against the RN142SM if a higher 60 V reverse voltage rating is needed for the circuit design.

RF Diode Part Context

This part belongs to the RN142 series of PIN diodes from ROHM Semiconductor. The series includes variants such as RN142SM and RN142VM, offering different voltage ratings and package types like EMD2 and UMD2. These components are generally utilized in RF front-end modules for consumer electronics requiring compact surface-mount solutions.

RF Diode Replacement Considerations

The RN142SM is identified as a similar specification alternative. It offers a 60 V reverse voltage and uses an EMD2 package. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter differences before substitution.
