Description
The MLM2060-300 and MLM2060-301 Series of
surface mount silicon PIN diode limiters 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.
Limiter Schematic
MLM2060-300
The MLM2060-300 has shunt PIN limiter diodes and
a shunt coil with no DC blocks, whereas the
MLM2060-301 incorporates shunt PIN limiters
diodes, a shunt coil, and DC blocks for versatility of
design preference. Using PIN diodes with lower
thermal resistance (<40 °C/W), RF CW incident
power levels of +6 dBm and RF peak incident power
levels of 50 dBm @ 1 μs RF pulse width, 0.001 duty
cycle are very achievable in broadband limiter
applications. The lower PIN diode series resistance,
(<1.5 Ω), coupled with the smaller minority carrier
lifetime, (<20 ns), provides lower flat leakage power
(<20 dBm) and lower spike leakage energy
(<0.1 Ergs ) for superior LNA protection.
