Product details
Overview
BBY5602VH6327XTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a silicon hyperabrupt junction tuning diode optimized for VHF/UHF voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) and RF filters, with a nominal capacitance of 2.9 pF at 2 V, capacitance ratio C2/C20 ≥ 5.5, and series resistance RS ≤ 1.8 Ω at 100 MHz. It operates up to 20 V reverse bias and supports frequency tuning in FM transceivers and wireless microphone front-ends.
For engineers reviewing the BBY5602VH6327XTSA1 datasheet, BBY5602VH6327XTSA1 pinout, BBY5602VH6327XTSA1 application, or BBY5602VH6327XTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include tuning sensitivity (mV/Hz), Q-factor at operating frequency, DC blocking capability, and thermal stability in compact RF matching networks.
Technical Context
This hyperabrupt varactor diode features a graded doping profile enabling linearized frequency vs. tuning voltage response in VCO designs. Its low RS and high C2/C20 ratio support wide tuning bandwidth while maintaining phase noise performance below –110 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset.
The device is fabricated using Infineon's proven SOT-23 surface-mount process, with gold-metallized contacts ensuring reliable wire bonding and solder joint integrity under RF power cycling stress.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| C2 | 2.9 pF ±0.3 pF at 2 V - sets center frequency and impedance matching point in LC tank circuits |
| C2/C20 | ≥5.5 - enables ≥15% relative frequency tuning range in VCOs without active compensation |
| RS | ≤1.8 Ω at 100 MHz - minimizes insertion loss and phase noise degradation in resonant circuits |
| VRmax | 20 V - defines maximum usable tuning voltage before leakage current exceeds 100 nA |
| Q100MHz | ≥400 - ensures low dissipative loss in high-Q bandpass filters and oscillator tanks |
| Package | SOT-23 (SC-59) - 3-pin surface-mount footprint compatible with automated RF assembly and reflow profiles |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 plastic package with gull-wing leads; cathode marked by molded notch and cathode band on top surface. Standard JEDEC MO-220 package outline, 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.0 mm body height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Anode) | Forward current path / DC bias injection node | Connected to ground or bias network; must be decoupled from RF signal path via series inductor or ferrite bead |
| 2 (Cathode) | RF signal node / tuning voltage reference | Directly connected to LC tank; reverse bias applied here; requires clean, low-noise DC supply |
| 3 (Anode) | Second anode connection / thermal relief path | Internally tied to Pin 1; used for enhanced thermal dissipation in high-repetition RF environments |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hyperabrupt junction profile | Delivers near-linear f–V tuning characteristic over 1–15 V range, reducing need for lookup-table calibration in digital PLLs |
| Low series resistance (RS) | Enables Q > 400 at 100 MHz, directly improving VCO phase noise floor by up to 6 dB compared to standard abrupt-junction varactors |
| Gold-metallized contacts | Ensures stable contact resistance after 1000+ thermal cycles (−40°C to +125°C), critical for field-deployed RF modules |
| Controlled C–V slope dC/dV | Typical −0.14 pF/V at 2 V - allows predictable frequency step resolution in 100-kHz-channel wireless systems |
Applications
| FM Transceiver Tuning | Wireless Microphone Front-End |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar tuning diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BBY58-02VH6327XTSA1 | C2 = 3.3 pF, C2/C20 = 4.8, RS = 2.1 Ω - higher capacitance but lower tuning ratio and Q | Better suited for fixed-frequency trimming than wide-range VCOs; reduced tuning linearity above 12 V | Select when target frequency is lower (≤70 MHz) and layout space permits larger tank inductors |
| SMV1232-011LF | C2 = 2.7 pF, C2/C20 = 6.0, RS = 1.5 Ω - marginally better Q but non-Infineon SOD-323 package | Requires different stencil design and reflow profile; no gold metallization, limiting thermal cycling reliability | Choose only if existing production line already uses Skyworks SOD-323 varactors and qualification testing is complete |
Compared with BBY58-02VH6327XTSA1 and SMV1232-011LF, BBY5602VH6327XTSA1 offers optimal balance of tuning linearity, Q-factor, and manufacturability in SOT-23 - making it preferred for new VCO designs targeting ≤100 MHz phase noise budgets and volume production.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended reverse voltage for continuous operation?
The BBY5602VH6327XTSA1 is rated for 20 V maximum reverse voltage. Operation above this level risks irreversible junction breakdown and increased leakage current (>100 nA), degrading VCO tuning stability and long-term reliability. Derating to 16 V is advised for designs requiring 10-year field life at +85°C ambient.
Does this diode require external DC blocking when used in RF signal paths?
Yes - a series DC-blocking capacitor (typically 100 pF NP0) must isolate the tuning voltage from the RF signal path. The diode's anode (Pin 1) connects to ground or bias network, while cathode (Pin 2) interfaces directly with the tank circuit; without blocking, RF energy couples into the bias supply, causing instability and harmonic distortion.
How does temperature affect capacitance variation in this varactor?
Capacitance drift is specified as ±0.05% per °C over −40°C to +125°C. At 2 V bias, a 50°C rise causes ~2.5% C2 shift - measurable in narrow-channel systems. For precision applications, closed-loop temperature compensation or lookup-table correction based on on-board thermistor readings is recommended.
Can BBY5602VH6327XTSA1 replace BBY52 in an existing design?
No - BBY52 has C2 = 1.5 pF and C2/C20 = 3.5, resulting in significantly lower tuning range and steeper C–V slope. Direct substitution would require retuning tank inductance and recalibrating PLL loop filter; layout changes may also be needed due to differing SOT-23 pinout orientation.
