Description
The 2690 Series standard limiter is a line of
completely passive solid state receiver protectors.
They exhibit octave and multi-octave performance
using a unique construction technique involving PIN
diodes in broadband microstrip circuits. Careful
diode selection allows
a
variety of device
performance, trading off peak and average power
handling, spike leakage and recovery time.
