The ADL8201 is a DC to 30GHz, high power, reflective RF limiter ensuring protection of sensitive circuitry.

Typical insertion loss, input return loss (RFIN), and flat leakage are 0.7dB, 18dB, and 15dBm, respectively, from 20GHz to 30GHz. The ADL8201 can withstand 37dBm continuous wave at 6GHz and >44dBm pulsed RF input to 2GHz. The recovery time is less than 10ns. The ADL8201 is internally matched to 50Ω and does not require any external circuitry.

The ADL8201 is fabricated on a gallium arsenide (GaAs) and housed in an RoHS-compliant, 2mm × 2mm × 0.85mm, 8-lead LFCSP. The ADL8201 is specified for operation over an extended temperature range of −55°C to +125°C.
