Does anybody know what the downsides would be of placing a pair of PIN diodes in parallel to increase the power handling capability of the circuit. My switch handles 800watts, but gets hot (120C on t

Hi George, Paralleling PIN diodes is a fine way to increase the power handling of a circuit. I don't see any problems other than the fact that as you point out, junction C is increased. However, tha

Unless you increase the current, it won't help the power handling. I don't have the 2001 data to hand, but my feeling is that you don't have enough bias current. Incidentally, with PINs, it's the low

If you place the PIN diodes in parallel, place them in OPPOSITE polarity for RF but in series for RF. That way the same bias current will pass through the pair (or quad) of diodes. Plus while one dio

I think Tom actually mean in series for DC. Bearing in mind that the forward RF resistance in the diode is of the order 0.1 or 0.2 ohms, then the series resistance of external parts will tend to domi

I want to thank everyone for their input. I have a sketch of a circuit with the diodes series connected for DC purposes and paralled for the RF. A word on the bias: The 2110 diode is specifically des

I have a sketch of what I have coughed up base on the replies and would be happy to provide it to anyone interested. It is a Windows Bitmap, about 35k is all, so not too onerous a download. I think t

Woops, that's right Peter. It should read in parallel for RF but in series for DC. Chip caps are well down in the milliohm range, but if you use them you need to add external resistance to equalize c
