Description
The MADP-011034-10720T is a surface mount PIN
diode in a non-magnetic Metal Electrode Leadless
Faced (MELF) package. The MADP-011034-10720T
is manufactured using M/A-COM Technology
Solutions time proven HIPAX technology. The result
is a low inductance ceramic package with no ribbons
or wires. The package utilizes a unique non-magnetic
plating process that provides for a hermetically sealed
component that has extremely low electromagnetic
permeability. Incorporated in the package is a glass
passivated CERMA chip that is full face bonded on
the cathode and anode which maximizes the surface
contact area to minimize the electrical and thermal
resistances. The chip and package have been
comprehensively characterized both electrically and
mechanically to ensure repeatable and predictable
performance.
Application
The MADP-011034-10720T is designed for circuit
protection and the tuning of RF coil designs in MRI
applications. When connected in an anti-parallel
configuration these PIN diodes provide excellent
protection from long RF pulses and transient voltage
spikes.
Package Style 1072
Designed for Automated Assembly
This easy to use package design makes automatic
pick and place, indexing and assembly, extremely
easy. The parallel flat surfaces are well suited for
most key jaw or vacuum pick-up techniques. All of the
solderable surfaces are tin plated and compatible with
industry standard reflow and vapor phase soldering
processes.
RoHS
The MADP-011034-10720T is fully RoHS compliant
meaning that it contains less than the maximum
allowable concentration of 0.1% by weight for lead,
PBB, PBDE, and 0.01% of cadmium and hexavalent
chromium at raw homogeneous materials level.
There is less than 100ppm of mercury and no
mercury was intentionally added to the component.
