Current equivalent to DH0035

Hi Karim,

Thanks for posting onto E2E. I am a member of the Power Switch team that supports DC Ideal Diodes and Switches. Unfortunately, we do not have any devices in my product line that could support RF switching up to 1MHz like the DH0035.

I am looping in a member from the Interface team who might be able to provide a better recommendation that is RF Front-end oriented.

Thanks,
Arthur Huang

Thanks for your reply and for forwarding my information request to the Interface team.

Hi Nasser,
Thanks for responding to my information request that got to you via Arthur. PIN diodes don't normally require such high drive (1A), but the 1A capacity helps lower the switch time between the conducting and non-conducting state of the PIN diode. For my application, 200mA forward bias with ~30V reverse bias is what I'd need for the conducting and non-conducting states respectively. I'd like to take a more careful look at the laser diode drivers, and to that end, could you provide a link to the highest capacity laser diode driver's specsheet?

Identification of another PIN diode driver, even if it's specs are different than that of DH0035, might work.
