Skyworks CLA series of silicon limiter diodes provides passive
receiver protection over a wide range of frequencies from
100 MHz to over 30 GHz. These devices use Skyworks wellestablished
silicon technology resulting in high resistivity and
tightly controlled base width PIN limiter diodes. Limiter circuits
using these devices perform with strong limiting action and low
loss.
The CLA series consists of nine individual chip designs of different
intrinsic region base widths and capacitances designed to
accommodate multi-stage limiter applications. The mesaconstructed,
thin base width, low capacitance CLA4602-000 are designed for
low-level and cleanup applications.
