Fairview Microwave has extended its line of broadband, high power coaxial packaged limiters. Typical applications for these RF limiters incorporate defence communications, fibre optic communication systems, instrumentation, SATCOM, telecom, radar, point-to-point wireless and R&D applications.
The company's line of high power RF limiters comprises 13 unique models that are designed to assist in protecting sensitive components in the receive chain and other microwave circuits near high power signals. These RF limiters work over a broad frequency range in bands from 0.2GHz to 40GHz and offer low leakage power circuit protection of 10dBm to 18dBm while providing good suppression of even-order harmonics under hard limiting. Also, they present a fast recovery time of 10 to 100 nanoseconds and high CW power handling of up to 200W peak power.
These 50Ohm designs include hi-rel assemblies that do not need any external matching components. The compact packages support thru mounting holes and field replaceable connectors that enable for drop mounting onto a circuit board. These rugged modules are created to meet MIL-STD-202 environmental test conditions for shock, vibration, humidity, altitude and temperature cycle. They are also guaranteed to work over an operating temperature range of -54C to +85C.
“This extended line of broadband, high power coaxial packaged RF limiters delivers a broad selection of highly reliable models for use in protecting sensitive components in the receive chain and other microwave circuits. These limiters are in-stock and available for same-day shipping to satisfy our customers’ urgent needs,” said Tim Galla, Active RF Components product manager.
