Description
Characteristic
Value
The DSG9500-000 is designed for low resistance, low capaci-
tance and fast switching time. The oxide-nitride passivation
layers provide reliable operation and stable junction parameters
that provide complete sealing of the junction permitting use in
assemblies with some degree of moisture sealing.

The DSG9500-000 is ideal for microstrip or stripline circuits and
for circuits requiring high isolation from a series mounted diode
such as broad band multi-throw switches, phase shifters, lim-
iters, attenuators and modulators.
Performance is guaranteed only under the conditions listed in the specifications table and is
not guaranteed under the full range(s) described by the Absolute Maximum specifications.
Exceeding any of the absolute maximum/minimum specifications may result in permanent
damage to the device and will void the warranty.
CAUTION: Although this device is designed to be as robust as
possible, Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage
this device. This device must be protected at all times
from ESD. Static charges may easily produce poten-
tials of several kilovolts on the human body or
equipment, which can discharge without detection.
Industry-standard ESD precautions must be employed
at all times.

1. Total capacitance calculated from isolation at 9 GHz zero bias. Series resistance and capacitance are measured at microwave frequencies on a sample basis from each lot.
All diodes are characterized for capacitance at –50 V, 1 MHz, and series resistance at 1 KHz, 50 mA, measurements which correlate well with microwave measurements.
2. TS measured from RF transition, 90% to 10%, in series configuration.
