VHF variable capacitance diode
BB 178
FEATURES
· Excellent linearity
· Excellent matching to 2% DMA
· Ultra small plastic SMD package
· C 28: 2.6 pF; ratio: 15
· Very low series resistance.
APPLICATIONS
· Electronic tuning in VHF television
tuners, band B up to 460 MHz
· Voltage controlled oscillators(VCO).
MARKING CODE:8
DESCRIPTION
The BB178 is a planar technology variable
capacitance diode, in a SOD523 (SC-79)
package. The excellent matching perfor-
mance is achieved by gliding matching and
a direct matching assembly procedure.
