The HLM-100001PSM is a high-power GaAs Schottky diode signal limiter featuring high IP3 over a broad DC-10GHz bandwidth. It offers low insertion loss and excellent return loss from DC through X band and has a typical 1 dB compression point of 11 dBm. Its high power handling makes it ideal for protecting sensitive components and for applications requiring high linearity. It is available as a plastic surface mount QFN or as a connectorized evaluation board.
