Description
These beam lead diodes are
constructed using a metal-
semiconductor Schottky barrier
junction. Advanced epitaxial
techniques and precise process
control insure uniformity and
repeatability of this planar
passivated microwave semicon-
ductor. A nitride passivation layer
provides immunity from
contaminants which could
otherwise lead to I
R
drift.
The HP beam lead process allows
for large beam anchor pads for
rugged construction (typical
6gram pull strength) without
degrading capacitance.
