Description
The main purpose of the BA892V-02V is the Band
Switching. Biased with a DC forward current for sig-
nals at frequencies over 100 MHz up to 3 GHz this di-
ode behaves like a current controlled resistor and not
as a diode any more.
Depending on the forward current the forward resis-
tance rf can be switched far below 1 Ω, so that the
Switch is closed. To open the Switch, the BA892V-
02V has to be driven in the reverse mode where the
BA892V-02V behaves like a small capacitor with high
isolation. So typical applications for this Band Switch-
ing Diode are mobile and TV-applications.
Features
• Low forward resistance
• Small, space saving SOD523 package with low
series inductance
• Small capacitance
Applications
• Band switching up to 3 GHz
• Low loss band-switching in TV/VTR tuners
