A multiplier varactor is enable to multiply power.
Packages are designed to dissipate the power yield:
Power out/Power in
As an option, packages can hold from 2 to 4 chips, to increase input power upon Customer request.
Major characteristics include:
- Output Frequency (fo)
- Breakdown Voltage (VBR)
- Junction Capacitance (Cj)
- Minority Carrier Lifetime (tl)
- Snap-offTime (tso)
- Thermal Resistance (Rth)
- Output Power (Po)
Silicon multiplier varactors (from 0.2 to 25 GHz) are designed for harmonic generation of high power levels and/or at high multiplication orders.
