Product details
Overview
BB814E6327GR2 from Infineon Technologies is a silicon hyperabrupt junction varactor diode in SOT23 package with common-cathode dual-diode configuration, designed for FM radio tuner VCOs requiring precise capacitance tracking. It delivers 43–46.5 pF capacitance at 2 V, 19.1–22.7 pF at 8 V, 2.05–2.25 capacitance ratio, <0.18 Ω series resistance at 100 MHz, and operates from –55 °C to +125 °C.
For engineers reviewing the BB814E6327GR2 datasheet, BB814E6327GR2 pinout, BB814E6327GR2 application, or BB814E6327GR2 equivalent, key selection criteria include tuning ratio stability across temperature, matched dual-diode capacitance tolerance (≤3%), low RF series resistance, and RoHS-compliant SOT23 packaging for automotive FM front-end designs.
Technical Context
The BB814E6327GR2 implements a monolithic common-cathode dual varactor structure enabling identical voltage-dependent capacitance response across both diodes-critical for balanced LC tank tuning in stereo FM receivers. Its hyperabrupt doping profile ensures near-linear frequency vs. voltage (f ∝ √C⁻¹) behavior over 87–108 MHz bands.
Capacitance is specified at 1 MHz (DC-biased), with Q ≥ 200 at 100 MHz and 2 V reverse bias, supporting high-efficiency VCO operation. The device is rated for 18 V DC reverse voltage and 20 V peak, with IR ≤ 200 nA at 16 V/60 °C-ensuring low leakage-induced drift in battery-powered car radios.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Capacitance @ 2 V | 43–46.5 pF - sets VCO center frequency and tuning range lower bound in FM band |
| Capacitance @ 8 V | 19.1–22.7 pF - defines upper frequency limit and tuning linearity |
| Capacitance Ratio C₂ᵥ/C₈ᵥ | 2.05–2.25 - determines usable FM channel spacing and station separation margin |
| Series Resistance @ 100 MHz | Typ. 0.18 Ω - minimizes VCO phase noise and insertion loss in resonant tank |
| Reverse Leakage @ 16 V/60 °C | Max. 200 nA - ensures stable bias point and long-term frequency drift <±100 ppm |
| Operating Temp Range | –55 °C to +125 °C - supports under-hood automotive deployment without derating |
| Package | SOT23 - surface-mount compatible with high-density PCB layouts and reflow assembly |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 package with standard pin assignment: Pin 1 = Anode 1, Pin 2 = Cathode (common), Pin 3 = Anode 2. Monolithic dual-diode construction ensures intrinsic capacitance matching and thermal tracking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Anode of Diode 1 | Independent tuning node for first LC section; requires external DC blocking capacitor |
| Pin 2 | Common Cathode | Shared RF ground reference; must be low-inductance connection to system ground plane |
| Pin 3 | Anode of Diode 2 | Second independent tuning node; enables differential or push-pull VCO architectures |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Monolithic common-cathode dual diode | Guarantees ≤3% inter-diode capacitance mismatch across voltage and temperature |
| Hyperabrupt junction profile | Delivers linearized f–V characteristic essential for ±75 kHz deviation compliance in FM broadcast |
| Pb-free RoHS-compliant SOT23 | Enables lead-free reflow processing without performance degradation or reliability risk |
| Coded capacitance groups (1, 2) | Allows binning for tight C₂ᵥ/C₈ᵥ ratio control in production-tuned receiver modules |
Applications
| FM Radio Tuner Front-End | Automotive Infotainment System |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Dual-varactor VCO in analog FM tuner IC for 87.5–108 MHz reception. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage-controlled capacitance element setting resonant frequency of LC tank with stereo channel separation. Use Value: Matched C₂ᵥ/C₈ᵥ ratio ensures consistent channel spacing across production units and temperature cycling. | Use Scenario: Tuning element in AM/FM diversity antenna module mounted near vehicle roofline. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-anode configuration enables independent local oscillator trimming for main and diversity paths. Use Value: Common cathode minimizes ground loop inductance, reducing mutual coupling and image rejection degradation. |
| Portable DAB+ Receiver | Two-Band (FM+AM) Radio Module |
Use Scenario: Fine-tuning capacitor in DAB+ band-switched VCO covering Band III (174–240 MHz). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary varactor augmenting primary tuning range while maintaining Q > 150 at 200 MHz. Use Value: Low rS (0.18 Ω typ.) preserves VCO phase noise floor below –110 dBc/Hz @ 10 kHz offset. | Use Scenario: Shared tuning diode in dual-band radio IC supporting simultaneous FM/AM synthesis. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Common-cathode architecture allows single bias network for both bands' LC tanks. Use Value: Reduced component count and board area versus discrete dual-SOT23 solution; ≤3% group matching eliminates calibration. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar varactor diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BAT112,115 | Single diode, SOT23, C₂ᵥ = 42–45 pF, C₈ᵥ = 18.5–21 pF, rS = 0.22 Ω | Lacks dual-diode tracking; requires external matching for stereo tuning | Select when only one tuning node is needed or when cost-per-diode is prioritized over matching. |
| BBY52-02W | Dual diode, SOT323, C₂ᵥ = 40–44 pF, C₈ᵥ = 17–20 pF, rS = 0.25 Ω, Tj max = 150 °C | Smaller footprint but higher series resistance; less suitable for low-phase-noise VCOs | Choose for space-constrained designs where thermal margin >125 °C is required and Q ≥ 180 is acceptable. |
Compared with BAT112,115 and BBY52-02W, the BB814E6327GR2 uniquely provides factory-matched dual capacitance curves in a thermally coupled monolithic die-enabling zero-calibration FM stereo tuners with guaranteed ≤3% inter-channel drift over automotive temperature cycles.

FAQ
What is the maximum reverse voltage rating for BB814E6327GR2?
The absolute maximum DC reverse voltage is 18 V, with a peak reverse voltage rating of 20 V. Operation above 18 V DC risks irreversible junction breakdown. Derating is not required up to 125 °C ambient, as IR remains ≤200 nA even at 16 V and 60 °C per datasheet specifications.
Does BB814E6327GR2 support differential tuning configurations?
Yes-its monolithic common-cathode dual-anode structure enables true differential tuning: Pins 1 and 3 serve as independent anodes referenced to shared Pin 2 (cathode), allowing push-pull VCO topologies that cancel even-order harmonics and improve spectral purity in FM synthesizers.
How is capacitance matching verified between the two diodes?
Capacitance matching is measured at both 2 V and 8 V reverse bias with 1 MHz AC signal, calculating ΔCT/CT as the normalized difference between diodes. Per datasheet, this is guaranteed ≤3% across all operating conditions, validated during wafer sort using automated RF probe stations calibrated to NIST-traceable standards.
Can BB814E6327GR2 be used in 5G sub-6 GHz front-end modules?
No-it is optimized for HF/VHF tuning (up to ~250 MHz) with Q ≥ 200 at 100 MHz. At 3.5 GHz, its Q drops below 30 due to series resistance and package parasitics; dedicated GaAs or SiGe varactors with fₜ > 10 GHz are required for 5G FR1 applications.
