FINAL DATA SHEET APD Series: Silicon PIN Diode Bondable Chips Applications Switches Attenuators Features Established Skyworks PIN diode process Low capacitance designs to 0.05 pF Voltage ratings to 200 V Chip size < 15 mils square Tight control of I layer base width Mesa and planar chip designs Description Skyworks APD series of silicon PIN diodes are designed for use as switch and attenuator devices in high-performance RF and microwave circuits. The PIN diode designs are useful over a wide range of frequencies from below 100 MHz to beyond 30 GHz. These devices use Skyworks well-established silicon technology resulting in PIN diodes with tightly controlled I-region characteristics. The low capacitance and low resistance of the APD0505 through APD1520 diodes are ideal for switch applications that require insertion loss and fast switching speed. For switch or attenuator applications requiring high power and low distortion, the thick I-region and high reverse breakdown voltage of the APD2220 is ideal. The absolute maximum ratings of the APD diode series are provided in Table 1. Electrical specifications are provided in Table 2. Table 3 identifies the die part numbers with their corresponding top contact diameters and die outline drawings. Typical performance characteristics are provided in Figures 1 through 5.

This device must be protected at all times from ESD when handling or transporting. Static charges may easily produce potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD handling precautions should be used at all times. 1 Table 2.
