Central Semi Intros CMLD2004 Series Diodes

Central Semiconductor Corp. (Hauppauge, NY) announced the introduction of the CMLD2004 Series of PICOmini™ surface-mount, high-voltage diodes. The new dual-diode devices are rated at 300V (maximum) peak repetitive, reverse voltage with a peak repetitive, reverse current of 200mA (maximum) per device. In addition to the high-voltage specification, the CMLD2004 Series devices all exhibit a trr of 50nS (maximum). The diodes are suitable for portable hand-held electronic devices requiring performance and reliability in a small package.

The PICOmini™ diodes in the SOT-563 package boast the same electrical specifications as the larger SOT-26 (CMXD2004) devices, but require less circuit board space. The CMLD2004 Series high-voltage diodes are manufactured in five configurations: the CMLD2004 (two individual diodes, isolated in parallel), the CMLD2004A (two individual diodes with common anodes), the CMLD2004C (two individual diodes with common cathodes), the CMLD2004DO (two individual diodes, isolated with opposing anodes and cathodes), and the CMLD2004S (two individual diodes, in series).

The devices have a nominal profile of 0.58mm and are SUBONE™ certified, featuring a profile of less than 1mm. The devices are available in bulk pack or as 3,000 pieces on 7in tape-and-reel. Pricing starts at $0.18 each for 3,000 pieces on a 7in reel. Sample devices are available upon request.
