Infineon BB639C / BB659C / BB659C-02V Silicon Variable Capacitance Diode Datasheet
The BB639C, BB659C and BB659C-02V are silicon variable capacitance diodes intended for tuning extended frequency bands in VHF TV and VTR tuners. They offer a high capacitance ratio, low series inductance and resistance, and excellent uniformity due to an "in‑line" matching assembly procedure.
Key specifications include a diode reverse voltage of 30 V, peak reverse voltage of 35 V, forward current of 20 mA, and an operating temperature range from –55 °C to 150 °C. Electrical characteristics such as diode capacitance (e.g., 36.5 pF at 1 V, 1 MHz) and capacitance ratios (e.g., 14.2 for Cr4/Cr28) are provided for various bias conditions.
