RF Diode Procurement Notes

Verify the active status of this component before integration, as it may be subject to obsolescence. Confirm that the SOD-323-2 package dimensions align with the target PCB footprint. Ensure thermal management strategies accommodate the specified maximum junction temperature during operation.

RF Diode Selection Notes

Select this part when a single PIN diode configuration is required for frequencies around 1 MHz. Compare the 900 fF capacitance and 7 Ohm series resistance against circuit requirements to ensure adequate isolation and insertion loss performance. Verify compatibility with the 50 V reverse voltage limit for the specific application environment.

RF Diode Part Context

This component belongs to the RN771V series of PIN diodes from ROHM Semiconductor. It shares the same core device structure but differs in packaging and tape-and-reel specifications compared to other suffixes in the family. The TE-17 designation indicates the specific taping and reel format used for automated assembly processes.

RF Diode Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly listed in available documentation. Evaluate alternative PIN diodes from the same manufacturer or competitors based on matching Vr, If, and capacitance values. Ensure any replacement maintains the SMD form factor and thermal characteristics.
