Product details

Overview

BB182,335 from NXP Semiconductors is a planar variable capacitance diode (varactor) in an ultra-small SOD523 (SC-79) surface-mount package, designed for VHF tuning applications up to 160 MHz. It delivers Cd(1V) = 52–62 pF, Cd(28V) = 2.48–2.89 pF, Cd(1V)/Cd(28V) ratio of 20.6–22, series resistance rs = 1.0–1.2 Ω at 100 MHz, and capacitance matching ≤2 % via Direct Matching Assembly (DMA).

For engineers reviewing the BB182,335 datasheet, BB182,335 pinout, BB182,335 application, or BB182,335 equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse voltage rating (32 V), junction temperature range (−55 °C to +125 °C), low leakage (≤10 nA at VR = 30 V), and tight capacitance matching for VCO and tuner front-end designs.

Technical Context

The BB182,335 operates as a voltage-controlled capacitor where reverse bias modulates junction depletion width, directly altering capacitance. Its planar silicon structure enables stable C–V characteristics with minimal hysteresis and temperature drift-evidenced by TCd curves across 0–85 °C and Cd(25V)/Cd(28V) ratio ≥1.05.

Designed for high-linearity tuning, it achieves 2 % matching over 10-diode sequences using gliding matching and DMA assembly. The 2-pin SOD523 package supports high-density RF layouts, with cathode marked by a bar and anode unmarked per IEC-standard pinning.

Key Specifications

ParameterValue and Actual Design Meaning
Cd(1V)52–62 pF: usable capacitance at low tuning voltage, enabling wide frequency sweep in VHF band A tuners
Cd(28V)2.48–2.89 pF: minimum capacitance at high reverse bias, defining upper frequency limit (~160 MHz)
Cd(1V)/Cd(28V)20.6–22: high tuning ratio ensures >2-decade frequency coverage without switching banks
rs1.0–1.2 Ω at 100 MHz: low series resistance minimizes Q degradation and phase noise in VCO resonators
VR (max)32 V: absolute maximum reverse voltage defines safe operating range for tuner supply rails
IR (max)10 nA at VR = 30 V, 25 °C: ultra-low leakage preserves tuning stability and reduces DC power loss
Matching≤2 % over 10-diode sequence: DMA-enabled matching supports dual-tuner or I/Q VCO architectures

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar varactor diode applications.

Alternative PartTechnical DifferenceApplication DifferenceSelection Advice
BB204,315Cd(1V) = 25–30 pF; Cd(1V)/Cd(28V) = 12; higher rs = 1.5 ΩNarrower tuning range; suited for UHF (>300 MHz) rather than VHF Band ASelect when targeting higher-frequency bands with relaxed matching requirements
SMV1232-011Cd(1V) = 45–55 pF; Cd(1V)/Cd|28V| = 18; SOD-323 package (1.7 × 1.3 mm)Larger footprint; lower matching spec (±5 %); no DMA processChoose for cost-sensitive designs where 2 % matching is not required and board space permits larger package

Compared with BB204,315 and SMV1232-011, the BB182,335 uniquely combines VHF-optimized capacitance range, 22:1 tuning ratio, and DMA-enabled 2 % matching-making it the only option qualified for high-precision analog TV tuner and dual-VCO calibration where traceable capacitance correlation is mandatory.

FAQ

What is the maximum reverse voltage rating for BB182,335?

The BB182,335 has an absolute maximum reverse voltage (VR) rating of 32 V under standard conditions, with a peak value of 35 V when used in series with a 10 kΩ resistor. Exceeding these limits risks permanent junction damage. This rating supports typical VHF tuner supply rails and ensures robust operation in analog TV and FM radio applications where tuning voltages remain below 30 V.

How does the Cd(1V)/Cd(28V) ratio of BB182,335 impact VHF tuning range?

The BB182,335 exhibits a Cd(1V)/Cd(28V) ratio of 20.6–22, which directly determines its usable frequency tuning range in LC resonators. With a fixed inductor, this ratio enables coverage across Band A (47–160 MHz) using a single varactor-eliminating need for switched capacitor banks. This simplifies tuner design and improves reliability in terrestrial TV receivers.

What does "Direct Matching Assembly (DMA)" mean for BB182,335?

Direct Matching Assembly (DMA) is NXP's proprietary process that achieves ≤2 % capacitance matching across sequences of 10 BB182,335 diodes. It combines gliding matching and precision binning to ensure correlated C–V curves. This capability is essential for differential VCOs, image-reject tuners, and factory calibration where paired varactors must track identically under identical bias.

Is BB182,335 suitable for use in FM radio receivers?

Yes, the BB182,335 is suitable for FM radio receivers operating in the 87.5–108 MHz band. Its Cd(1V) = 52–62 pF and Cd(28V) = 2.48–2.89 pF provide optimal resonance with standard FM IF/RF inductors. Temperature coefficient data (TCd curves) confirm stable performance across −55 °C to +125 °C, supporting reliable channel selection in consumer-grade radios exposed to ambient temperature variation.

What is the series resistance (rs) specification for BB182,335 and why does it matter?

The BB182,335 has a series resistance (rs) of 1.0–1.2 Ω measured at 100 MHz with Cd = 30 pF. This low rs value minimizes resistive losses in resonant tank circuits, preserving Q-factor and reducing phase noise in VCOs. In practical terms, it enables VCOs built with BB182,335 to achieve better close-in phase noise performance compared to varactors with rs >1.5 Ω, especially at VHF frequencies.
