MADL-011008 PIN Diode Limiter 50 MHz - 4 GHz Rev. V2 Features Functional Schematic Low Insertion Loss and Noise Figure +40 dBm Peak and +30 dBm CW Power +10 dBm P1dB Compression Point +16 dBm Flat Leakage Lead-Free 1.2 x 1.5 mm 6-Lead PQFN Package RoHS Compliant* and 260C Reflow Compatible N/C Description The MADL-011008 is a silicon PIN limiter with small I-region length specifically designed for medium signal applications. The limiter is available in a lead-free 1.2 x 1.5 mm 6-lead PQFN package. The limiter is ideally designed to provide low insertion loss, at zero bias, as well as low flat leakage power with fast signal response/recovery times. The MADL-011008 PIN limiter is designed for use in passive limiter control circuits to protect sensitive receiver components such as low noise amplifiers (LNA), detectors, and mixers.
