Product details

The KVX2162-23-0: ROHS3 compliant — no exemption conflicts for EU or similar regulated markets.

Parametric fit for RF tuning

22 V peak reverse voltage (Vrrm) sets the tuning range ceiling — the varactor's capacitance swing is usable up to that bias, making it suitable for VCO or filter alignment in the UHF to low-GHz bands. Q factor of 400 at 4 V and 50 MHz indicates low series resistance in the tuning element, which preserves circuit Q in resonant tank applications. Capacitance of 26 pF at 0 V bias, 1 MHz, gives the zero-bias starting point for the C-V curve; the actual tuning ratio depends on the voltage swing applied across the diode.

Package and temperature grade

SOT-23-3 (TO-236/SC-59) surface-mount package — standard three-lead footprint, compatible with reflow profiles for lead-free solder per J-STD-020. Rated for -55°C to +125°C operating temperature, covering industrial and extended-range environments without derating concerns.
