Abstract:
A PIN diode has an anode spaced away from a central region of a top surface of a substrate, such that the anode is in a corner or at a side edge of the top surface. Alternatively, the PIN diode has an anode surrounded by a shield layer. The PIN diode reduces unwanted parasitic capacitance to increase the reverse isolation of RF switches and to reduce the diffusion capacitance to increase the f 3dB  frequency specification of amplifier circuits. The PIN diode dramatically reduces the values of both parasitic and diffusion capacitances, which enables its application in switches and amplifiers under a wide variety of bias conditions including reverse, low-moderate forward, and large forward-bias; which enables bonding to a much larger metal area than the active electrode, with negligible increase in the parasitic capacitance; and which enables reliable wire-bonding by presenting a highly planar metal surface.

Claim (Index 24):
The PIN diode of  claim 22 , wherein the impedance is connected to the ground through a switch, thereby allowing high isolation in the OFF state, and providing relatively small capacitance between the anode and the at least one third terminal.
