HSMS-281x
Surface Mount RF Schottky Barrier Diodes
Data Sheet
Description/Applications
These Schottky diodes are specifically designed for
both analog and digital applications. This series offers
a wide range of specifications and package configura-
tions to give the designer wide flexibility. The
HSMS-281x series of diodes features very low flicker
(1/f) noise.
Note that Avago’s manufacturing techniques assure
that dice found in pairs and quads are taken from
adjacent sites on the wafer, assuring the highest degree
of match.

Quad Capacitance
Capacitance of Schottky diode
quads is measured using an
HP4271 LCR meter. This
instrument effectively isolates
individual diode branches from
the others, allowing accurate
capacitance measurement of each
branch or each diode. The
conditions are: 20 mV R.M.S.
voltage at 1 MHz. Avago defines
this measurement as “CM”, and it
is equivalent to the capacitance of
the diode by itself. The equivalent
diagonal and adjacent
capacitances can then be
calculated by the formulas given
below.
In a quad, the diagonal capaci-
tance is the capacitance between
points A and B as shown in the
figure below. The diagonal
capacitance is calculated using
the following formula

Applications Information
Introduction —
Product Selection
Avago’s family of Schottky
products provides unique solu-
tions to many design problems.
The first step in choosing the right
product is to select the diode type.
All of the products in the
HSMS-282x family use the same
diode chip, and the same is true of
the HSMS-281x and HSMS-280x
families. Each family has a
different set of characteristics
which can be compared most
easily by consulting the SPICE
parameters in Table 1.
A review of these data shows that
the HSMS-280x family has the
highest breakdown voltage, but at
the expense of a high value of
series resistance (R
s
). In applica-
tions which do not require high
voltage the HSMS-282x family,
with a lower value of series
resistance, will offer higher
current carrying capacity and
better performance. The HSMS-
281x family is a hybrid Schottky
(as is the HSMS-280x), offering
lower 1/f or flicker noise than the
HSMS-282x family.
In general, the HSMS-282x family
should be the designer’s first
choice, with the -280x family
reserved for high voltage applica-
tions and the HSMS-281x family
for low flicker noise applications.
