DESCRIPTION
The Aeroflex / Metelics MTV4030 Series Tuning
Varactors are silicon abrupt junction devices. They
offer the highest Q and lowest resistance available in
30 volt tuning devices.
A unique silicon passivation process assures greater
stability, reliability, and low leakage currents at
higher temperatures.
Features
• Low Series Resistance
• High Q
• Extensive Selection of Capacitance Values
Maximum Ratings
Applications
The MTV4030 Series Tuning Varactors are used for both narrow and wide band tuning through X-band.
These devices are used in circuits requiring a high Q voltage variable capacitance such as tunable filters
and amplifiers, voltage controlled oscillators, frequency synthesizers, and continuous phase shifters. They
are also useful as frequency and phase modulators in communications applications.
Rating Limits Units
Operating Temperature -55 to +150 °C
Storage Temperature -65 to +200 °C
Device Dissipation 250 mW
ESD & MSL Ratings Class 0 (Human Body Model) & MSL1
