M/A-COM Technology Solutions has announced a new 200 W CW power L-Band limiter that handles up to four times the power handling than competing alternatives. The MADL-011014 is a high power limiter that is ideally suited to demanding applications which require high peak and CW power receive protection in Air Traffic Management and Radar systems. The passive, fully matched limiter operates over the 1 to 2 GHz bandwidth and integrates the equivalent of 19 discrete diodes and passive components into a single packaged solution. The device features 200 Watts CW power handling and up to a 1000 W of peak power handling under 300 us and 10% duty cycle pulse conditions.
The MADL-011014 has an insertion loss of less than 0.35 dB and 19 dBm flat leakage power at 55 dBm. It is available in a low RGA, fully hermetic package with a compact 10.1mm x 6.2mm x 3.2mm outline and has been developed to perform reliably under harsh environmental conditions.
