Description
Each Schottky barrier beam lead Tee consists of two close-
ly matched diodes connected in the classic Tee configura-
tion. The diodes are formed monolithically to assure close
matching of electrical characteristics such as capacitance,
forward voltage and series resistance. The silicon that
originally connected the diodes on the wafer is removed.
The beam lead construction assures minimum parasitic
capacitance, connecting lead inductance and permits the
interconnection of the diodes into Tees at the wafer level.
Three barrier levels are available allowing different levels
of local oscillator drive power. The L series features a low
barrier for applications which have low available local
oscillator power. Both medium barrier (M series) and high
barrier (H series) devices are available for applications
with higher drive levels. The RF and local oscillator fre-
quencies can range up to 18 GHz with selection of an
appropriate junction capacitance. Each series is available
in three case styles which are compatible with microstrip
or stripline assembly techniques. The 270 case style is her-
metically sealed and is suggested for harsh environments
or for military or high reliability circuits. The 272 case style
is a low cost plastic enclosure similar in case style. The
beam lead case styles 271 and 1012 are designed for max-
imum bandwidth. The case style 271 is a forward tee and
the 1012 is a reverse tee. The case style 1000 is the small-
est stripline package and has the lowest parasitic capaci-
tance and inductance.

and
∆C
j
are measured at V
R
= 0 volts and f = 1.0 MHz.
2. V
F
is measured at I
F
= 1.0 mA.
3. Series resistance, R
S
, is determined by subtracting the junction
resistance, R
j
, from the measured value of 10 mA dynamic (slope)
resistance, R
T
:
R
S
= R

I
F
= 10 mA
I
F
is the forward bias current in mA.
4. Reverse voltage is measured at I
R

5. The standard case styles for the forward tee series is 271, and the
Schottky beam lead tees are 270, 271, 272 and 1000.
6. The standard case style for the reverse tee series of diodes is case
style 1012. Tees are available in case styles 270, 272 and 1000.
7. To order parts specify the package as a suffix, i.e., MA4E201L-270 is a
low barrier tee in case style 270.
