1.0-2.0 GHz PIN-PIN Diode Limiter Specifications
1.0-2.0 GHz PIN-PIN diode limiter EPL1020A3 from Eclipse MDI provides passive RF receiver protection across the 1 GHz to 2 GHz frequency range. Designed to help protect sensitive receiver circuitry from excessive RF input power, the EPL1020A3 features 0.4 dB typical insertion loss and 1.4:1 typical VSWR. Published electrical specifications identify maximum leakage power of +19 dBm CW and +23 dBm peak. The limiter incorporates an internal DC return and supports 1 watt CW input power and 100 watts peak input power under specified pulse conditions of 1 microsecond pulse width and 0.1% duty cycle. Engineers evaluating this component should consider insertion loss, impedance matching, limiting threshold, leakage power, recovery characteristics and input power ratings. These parameters influence receiver sensitivity and protection performance. Refer to the latest approved EPL1020A3 datasheet for detailed electrical specifications, operating temperature limits, mechanical dimensions and integration requirements.
