4.0-8.0 GHz PIN-Schottky RF Limiter Specifications
4.0-8.0 GHz PIN-Schottky IC RF limiter ESL4080QFN4 from Eclipse MDI is designed for microwave receiver protection applications. This device combines PIN and Schottky diode technology to help limit excessive RF signal levels before they reach sensitive receiver components. Operating from 4 GHz to 8 GHz, the ESL4080QFN4 IC, is intended for applications where limiting performance and low signal-path loss are important design considerations. Engineers evaluating this component should examine insertion loss, input and output VSWR, limiting threshold, CW and peak leakage power, input power handling and recovery characteristics. These specifications influence receiver sensitivity, impedance matching and protection performance. Consult the latest approved ESL4080QFN4 datasheet for verified electrical specifications, measurement conditions and package information.
