Product data sheet
1. Product profile
1.1 General description
The BB153 is a variable capacitance diode, fabricated in planar technology and
encapsulated in the SOD323 (SC-76) very small SMD plastic package.
The excellent matching performance is achieved by gliding matching and a Direct
Matching Assembly (DMA) procedure.
