LIMITER DIODES
DESCRIPTION
The GC4700 series diodes are specially processed PIN
diodes designed for use in passive or active limiters at
frequencies through Ku band.
Twelve categories of devices are offered for flexibility
in design of low (lower Vb, fastest turn-on time), me-
dium and high (highest Vb, slowest turn-on time)
power limiters.

APPLICATIONS
A diode limiter is a power-sensitive variable attenuator
that uses the non-linear properties of the diode to pro-
vide an impedance mismatch when sufficient amounts
of RF power are incident on the device. The output
power is reduced to a level that will not overdrive a re-
ceiver, burn out a mixer, etc. For varying input power
levels in excess of the diode’s threshold level, the limiter’s
output power tends to remain constant.
A passive limiter is one in which the limiter diodes are
“turned on” by the RF signal itself. An active limiter is one
in which the limiter diodes are “turned on” primarily by an
external bias current typically supplied by a Schottky de-
tector diode which senses the incident signal.
Since limiter diodes are not designed to dissipate large
amounts of power, the limiter must reflect or divert the
excess incident power back to the source or to another
load (i.e. via a circulator, hybrid coupler, etc.).
Limiter diodes may be used in wave guides, coax, mi-
crostrip, stripline or other media. Single or cascaded
devices may be used, depending on power levels.
