2.0-8.0 GHz PIN-Schottky RF Limiter IC Specifications
2.0-8.0 GHz PIN-Schottky RF limiter IC ESL2080QFN4 from Eclipse MDI is designed for microwave receiver protection applications. Combining PIN and Schottky diode technologies, this device helps limit excessive RF power before it reaches sensitive receiver circuitry. The ESL2080QFN4 covers the 2 GHz to 8 GHz frequency range, making it suitable for evaluation in broadband RF and microwave systems requiring signal-path protection. Engineers selecting this component should evaluate insertion loss, VSWR, limiting threshold, CW leakage power, peak leakage power, input power handling and recovery characteristics. These parameters influence receiver sensitivity, impedance matching and the level of protection provided under high-power input conditions. Consult the latest approved Eclipse MDI datasheet for verified electrical characteristics, measurement conditions, and package information.
