Control Devices: MLP 7100 Series
Limiter Diodes
Description
The MicroMetrics MLP 7100 series
Limiter diodes are specially processed
PIN diodes with a thin intrinsic region
designed for use in passive or active
limiters over the entire range of fre-
quencies from 100 MHz to beyond 20
GHz. The different “I” region thick-
nesses and capacitances provide vari-
able threshold and leakage power lev-
els and power handling capability.
Applications
The MLP 7100 series limiters are for
use in waveguides, coax, microstrip or
stripline. Single or cascade devices
may be used depending on power
levels.
