less than 1000 ppm by weight

Applications
The TC626P can be used as an
RF limiter, a Reverse Power
Protection (RPP) device, and as
an ESD and DC transient pro-
tector.
Assembly Techniques
The QFN SMT package is com-
patible with industry standard
solder-reflow attach processes.
As a limiter, the incident power
at 1 dB gain compression
(P
) is 26.5 dBm at 9 GHz,
–1dB
Diodes are ESD sensitive. ESD
preventive measures must be
employed in all aspects of han-
dling and assembly. Diode ESD
precautions, handling consider-
ations, and bonding methods
are critical factors in successful
diode performance and reliabil-
ity. Agilent application note

and Handling Procedures" pro-

subjects.
and drops to 25 dBm at 20 GHz.
As an ESD protection device,
the TC626P can protect ESD
sensitive components, the de-
gree of protection depending on
the protected components char-
acteristics. ESD damage level
for the TC626P by itself is great-
er than 6 kV (measured with an
IEC801–2, 150 pF, 330 ohm con-
tact ESD generator).

Biasing and Operation
The TC626P needs no bias, and
is symmetric.
RoHS Compliance
Tape and Reel
The TC626P component is avail-
able in tape and reel format See
Figure 2. for tape and reel label.
The 3X3mm QFN Limiter is
RoHS Compliant. This means
this part meets the require-
ments of the European Parlia-
ment and the Council of the
European
Union “Re-
striction of
Hazardous
Substances” Directive 2002/95/
EC, commonly known as
“RoHS”. The six regulated sub-
stances are lead, mercury, cad-
mium, chromium VI
(hexavalent), polybrominated
biphenyls (PBB) and polybromi-
nated biphenyl ethers (PBDE).
RoHS compliance implies that
any residual concentration of
these substances is below the
RoHS Directive’s maximum con-
centration values (MVC); being
