Device Overview
General Description
The DLM-10SM is a tunable, dual channel GaAs Schottky diode signal limiter featuring excellent IP3, insertion loss, and return loss. The limiting level is adjustable with an off-chip bias network, and the two channels can be used for differential or single-ended signals. The DLM-10SM is available in a lead-free, RoHS compliant QFN surface mount package and is compatible with standard leaded and lead-free PCB reflow soldering processes. The DLM-10SM is a superior alternative to discrete diode limiting options.
Features
- Industry leading IP3, low insertion loss and return loss
- Adjustable limiting level with off-chip bias network
- Single channel differential/Dual channel single ended
- RoHS Compliant
Applications
- RF Transceivers
- Test and Measurement Equipment
- SATCOM
