MBD1057-C18

Planar Back (Tunnel) Diodes MBD Series; ·Zero bias operation\n·Screening per MIL-PRF-19500and MIL-PRF-35834 available\n·Low Video Impedance\n·Excellent temperature stability\n;

The MBD series of back (tunnel) diodes are fabricated on germanium substrates using passivated, planar construction and gold metallization for reliable operation up to +110 °C. Unlike the standard tunnel diode IP is minimized for detector operation and offered in five nominal values with varying degrees of sensitivity and video impedance. The back detector is generally operated with zero bias and is known for its excellent temperature stability and fast video rise times.
