    Descriptive summary

    Together with outstanding RF performance, the diodes simplify design-in because of their extremely low forward resistance, diode capacitance and series inductance. These inherent qualities are largely due to a state-of-the-art planar diffusion process. Supplied in a range of highly compact package options - including SOD523 and the leadless, environmentally-friendly SOD882 (MCD) - significant board space savings can be made, helping designers create smaller, lighter end-products.
