HSMS-282x
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 configurations to give
the designer wide flexibility. Typical applications of these
Schottky diodes are mixing, detecting, switching, sam‑
pling, clamping, and wave shaping. The HSMS‑282x series
of diodes is the best all‑around choice for most applica‑
tions, featuring low series resistance, low forward voltage
at all current levels and good RF characteristics.
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 ac‑
curate 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 equiva‑
lent to the capacitance of the diode by itself. The equiva‑
lent diagonal and adjacent capaci‑tances can then be cal‑
culated by the formulas given below.
In a quad, the diagonal capacitance is the capacitance be‑
tween points A and B as shown in the figure below. The
diagonal capacitance is calculated using the following

Applications Information
Product Selection
Avago’s family of surface mount Schottky diodes provide
unique solutions to many design problems. Each is opti‑
mized for certain applications.
The first step in choosing the right product is to select
the diode type. All of the products in the HSMS‑282x fam‑
ily use the same diode chip–they differ only in package
configuration. The same is true of the HSMS‑280x, ‑281x,
285x, ‑286x and ‑270x families. Each family has a different
set of characteristics, which can be compared most easily
by consulting the SPICE parameters given on each data
sheet.
The HSMS‑282x family has been optimized for use in RF
applications, such as
•
DC biased small signal detectors to 1.5 GHz.
•
Biased or unbiased large signal detectors (AGC or
power monitors) to 4 GHz.
•
Mixers and frequencymultipliers to 6 GHz.
The other feature of the HSMS‑282x family is its unit‑to‑unit
and lot‑to‑lot consistency. The silicon chip used in this
series has been designed to use the fewest possible pro‑
cessing steps to minimize variations in diode characteris‑
tics. Statistical data on the consistency of this product, in
terms of SPICE parameters, is available from Avago.
For those applications requiring very high breakdown
voltage, use the HSMS‑280x family of diodes. Turn to the
HSMS‑281x when you need very low flicker noise. The
HSMS‑285x is a family of zero bias detector diodes for small
signal applications. For high frequency detector or mixer
applications, use the HSMS‑286x family. The HSMS‑270x
is a series of specialty diodes for ultra high speed clipping
and clamping in digital circuits.

Schottky Barrier Diode Characteristics
Stripped of its package, a Schottky barrier diode chip
consists of a metal‑semiconductor barrier formed by de‑
position of a metal layer on a semiconductor. The most
common of several different types, the passivated diode,
is shown in Figure 10, along with its equivalent circuit.
R
S
is the parasitic series resistance of the diode, the sum
of the bondwire and leadframe resistance, the resistance
of the bulk layer of silicon, etc. RF energy coupled into R
S
is lost as heat—it does not contribute to the rectified out‑
put of the diode. C
J
is parasitic junction capacitance of the
diode, controlled by the thick‑ness of the epitaxial layer
and the diameter of the Schottky contact. R
j
is the junc‑
tion resistance of the diode, a function of the total current
flowing through it.
On a semi‑log plot (as shown in the Avago catalog) the
current graph will be a straight line with inverse slope 2.3
X 0.026 = 0.060 volts per cycle (until the effect of R
S
is seen
in a curve that droops at high current). All Schottky diode
curves have the same slope, but not necessarily the same
value of current for a given voltage. This is determined
by the saturation current, I
S
, and is related to the barrier
height of the diode.
Through the choice of p‑type or n‑type silicon, and the
selection of metal, one can tailor the characteristics of a
Schottky diode. Barrier height will be altered, and at the
same time CJ and RS will be changed. In general, very low
barrier height diodes (with high values of IS, suitable for
zero bias applications) are realized on p‑type silicon. Such
diodes suffer from higher values of RS than do the n‑type.
