required. The HSMP-48XX series
are special products featuring
ultra low parasitic inductance in
the SOT-23 package, specifically
designed for use at frequencies
which are much higher than the
upper limit for conventional
SOT-23 PIN diodes. The
HSMP-4810 diode is a low distor-
tion attenuating PIN designed for
operation to 3 GHz. The
HSMP-4820 diode is ideal for
limiting and low inductance
switching applications up to
1.5 GHz. The HSMP-4890 is
optimized for low current switch-
ing applications up to 3 GHz.
The HSMP-386X series of general
purpose PIN diodes are designed
for two classes of applications.
The first is attenuators where
current consumption is the most
important design consideration.
The second application for this
series of diodes is in switches
where low cost is the driving
issue for the designer.
The HSMP-386X series Total
Capacitance (C
T
) and Total
Resistance (R
T
) are typical
specifications. For applications
that require guaranteed perfor-
mance, the general purpose
HSMP-383X series is recom-
mended. For low distortion

Description/Applications
The HSMP-380X and HSMP-381X
series are specifically designed for
low distortion attenuator applica-
tions. The HSMP-382X series is
optimized for switching applica-
tions where ultra-low resistance is
required. The HSMP-3880 switch-
ing diode is an ultra low distortion
device optimized for higher power
applications from 50 MHz to
1.5 GHz. The HSMP-389X series is
optimized for switching applica-
tions where low resistance at low
current and low capacitance are

attenuators, the HSMP-380X or
-381X series are recommended.
For high performance switching
applications, the HSMP-389X
series is recommended.
A SPICE model is not available
for PIN diodes as SPICE does not
provide for a key PIN diode
characteristic, carrier lifetime.
