LM200802-M-A-300 Series Datasheet

Description

The LM200802-M-A-300 Series of Surface Mount Silicon PIN Diode Limiters is manufactured using

Aeroflex / Metelics proven hybrid manufacturing process incorporating Silicon NIP and PIN Diodes

integrated within a ceramic substrate. This low profile, compact, surface mount component,

(8mm L x 5mm W x 2.5 mm H ) 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, (N.F.)

and high signal flat leakage performance in a compact, surface mount package.

The design incorporates a NIP Diode with an Anti-Parallel PIN Diode to provide broadband microwave

performance from 20 MHz – 8 GHz. Using NIP and PIN Limiter Diodes with lower thermal resistance,

(< 55 ºC/W), RF C.W. incident power levels of +44 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 and NIP Diode series resistance, (< 1.5 Ω), coupled with the smaller minority carrier lifetime,

(< 300 ηS), provides lower flat leakage power (< +20 dBm) and lower spike leakage energy (< 0.1 Ergs)

for superior LNA protection.

Applications

The LM200802-M-A-300 Limiter Series is ideal for 20 MHz to 8 GHz wideband 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.

Environmental Capabilities

The LM200802-M-A-300 Limiters are capable of meeting the environmental requirements of MIL-STD-

750 and MIL-STD-202.

ESD and Moisture Sensitivity Level Rating

PIN Diode Limiters are susceptible to ESD conditions as with all semiconductors. The ESD rating for this

device is Class 0, HBM. The moisture sensitivity level rating for this device is MSL 2.
