General description
The BB178 is a planar technology variable capacitance diode, in a SOD523 (SC-79) ultra small plastic package. The excellent matching performance is achieved by gliding matching and a Direct Matching Assembly (DMA) procedure.

FEATUREs and benefits
■ Excellent linearity
■ Excellent matching to 2 % DMA
■ Ultra small plastic SMD package
■ Cd(28V): 2.6 pF; Cd(1V) to Cd(28V) ratio: 15
■ Very low series resistance.

APPLICATIONs
■ Electronic tuning in VHF television tuners, band B up to 460 MHz
■ Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCO).
