SMV1212 Series

Hyperabrupt Junction Tuning Varactor


The SMV121x series of silicon hyperabrupt junction varactor diodes are designed for use in Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) with a low tuning voltage operation. This family of varactors is characterized for capacitance and resistance over temperature.

SMV1212 Series Series includes SMV1212-001LF and SMV1212-079LF.

Please note: SMV1212 Series is being discontinued and is not recommended for new designs.
