Title: Enabling System Level Improvements with Novel Schottky Diode Limiters

Date: July 27, 2022

Time: 8am PT /11am ET

Sponsored by: Marki Microwave

Presented by: Harley Berman, Applications Engineer, Marki Microwave

Abstract:

Used in transceiver designs from SATCOM to radar, limiters are crucial building blocks that protect sensitive circuitry from high powered signals. As the operating frequency and transmit power levels of these systems increase, the RF world is scrambling to find novel limiter technologies that can keep up with these system level advancements, which call for a limiter that can exhibit instantaneous recovery times, near-zero spike leakage and thermal properties that allow for unaltered performance in high-power pulsed conditions. Marki Microwave has released a new line of Schottky diode limiters created on a THz process. Join us as we discuss the massive performance benefits that these limiters provide and learn how your system designs can be improved and simplified through the adoption of this limiter technology.
