Philips BB910 VHF Variable Capacitance Diode Datasheet
The BB910 is a VHF variable capacitance diode offered by Philips Semiconductors. It features excellent linearity, a 2.5 % matching tolerance, and a hermetically sealed leaded‑glass SOD68 (DO‑34) package. The device is intended for electronic tuning in VHF television tuners and VCO applications up to 460 MHz.
The datasheet lists the diode's key electrical parameters, such as a continuous reverse voltage of 30 V, continuous forward current of 20 mA, and typical reverse current of 10 nA at 28 V. Capacitance values are given (38 pF at 0.5 V, 1 MHz) along with temperature and series‑resistance specifications, and the package dimensions are provided for board layout.
