Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium – June 28, 2011. CISSOID, the leader in high temperature semiconductor solutions, releases CHT-GANYMEDE, a high-temperature 80V dual series small-signal diode in a small hermetically sealed metal can TO-18 package. This new device includes two diodes connected in series that can sustain a reverse voltage of 80V, have a maximum forward current of 300mA at 225°C and are suitable for operation from -55°C up to +225°C. This dual diode is a general purpose discrete component which and can be used in a variety of applications, including clamping, low-current rectification and sensing, among others. 

CHT-GANYMEDE data-sheet is available now from CISSOID web site. CHT- GANYMEDE is available in hermetically sealed TO-18 metal can package for sampling and evaluation. Pricing starts at $158.59/unit up to 200 units.
