Fairview Microwave Inc. announces a new family of broadband, high power coaxial limiters that protect sensitive components and RF receivers that are close to high power signals.
Depending on the model, the limiters operate on frequencies ranging from 0.5 GHz to 40 GHz. The limiters also offer seven different design options, a low leakage power of 10 to 15 dBm and limited thresholds between 3 to 10 dBm. This product also offers high CW power handling up to 200 watts of peak power and fast recovery times of 10 to 100 nanoseconds.
“The new high power, broadband limiters are constructed with high-rel, ruggedized packages that are designed to meet MIL-STD-202 environmental conditions for humidity, shock, vibration, altitude and temperature cycle. These components are also guaranteed to operate over temperature ranges from -54° C to +85° C. The 50 Ohm hybrid designs utilize limiting diode circuitry and do not require any external matching components,” according to PR Newswire.
The limiters are best suited for electronic warfare instrumentation, fiber optic communication systems, radar, SATCOM, telecom, R&D and point-to-point radio applications.
