Description
The LM202802‐L‐C‐300 surface mount silicon PIN
diode limiter is manufactured using a proven hybrid
manufacturing process incorporating PIN diodes and
passive devices integrated within
a
ceramic
substrate. This low profile, compact, surface mount
component offers superior low and high signal
performance to comparable MMIC devices in QFN
packages. The limiter modules are designed to
optimize small signal insertion loss, noise figure and
high signal flat leakage performance in a compact,
surface mount package from 2 - 8 GHz.
Limiter Schematic
Using PIN diodes with lower thermal resistance
(<100ºC/W), RF CW incident power levels of +36
dBm and RF peak incident power levels of +50 dBm
@ 1 μs RF pulse width, 0.1% duty cycle are very
achievable. In addition, this design concept provides
lower flat leakage power (<+19 dBm) and lower
spike leakage energy (<0.2 Ergs) for superior LNA
protection.
These LM202802‐L‐C‐300 limiters are ideal for
octave band radar applications, requiring high
volume, surface mount, solder re‐flow
manufacturing. These products are durable, reliable,
and capable of meeting all military, commercial, and
industrial environments. The devices are fully RoHS
compliant and are available in tube or tape‐reel.
