Product Description

Skyworks SMV123x Series: Hyperabrupt Junction Tuning Varactors

The Skyworks SMV123x series are silicon hyperabrupt junction varactor diodes designed for low tuning voltage Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs). Their low series resistance makes them ideal for high-Q resonators in wireless system VCOs operating at frequencies above 10 GHz. These varactors are characterized for capacitance and resistance over temperature, offering excellent performance in high-volume commercial systems.
