Features
• Lower Insertion Loss and Noise Figure
• Higher Peak and Average Operating Power
• Various P1dB Compression Powers
• Lower Flat Leakage Power
• Reliable Silicon Nitride Passivation
Description
M/A-COM produces a series of small and
medium I-region length silicon PIN diodes
specifically designed for high signal limiter
applications. Each of these devices provides
circuit designers with lower insertion loss at
zero bias, faster response and recovery times,
and lower flat leakage power. This series of
diode is available as passivated chips
(ODS 132 or ODS 134) as well as hermetic
surface mount and cylindrical ceramic
packages. Consult factory for specific package
style availability.
Applications
The MA4L Series of PIN limiter diodes are
designed for use in passive limiter control
circuits to protect sensitive receiver components
such as low noise amplifiers ( LNA ), detectors,
and mixers covering the 10MHz to 18GHz
frequency band.
