SMV2026 Series

Surface-Mount, Silicon Hyperabrupt Tuning Varactor Diodes


The SMV2026 series are silicon surface-mount, hyperabrupt tuning varactor diodes, excellent for use as high-Q tuning elements in an RF Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO), voltagecontrolled phase shifter, or tunable bandpass filter.

The minimum capacitance ratio from 2 V to 10 V is 2.0, which makes the SMV2026 series suitable for wide bandwidth VCOs and wide phase- range phase shifters.

The SMV2026 is manufactured in a surface-mount, industrystandard SC-79 package and an ultrasmall SOD-882 package that offer very low parasitic inductance and capacitance.

SMV2026 series includes SMV2026-079LF and SMV2026-040LF.
