L42 / SML42 / CL42 Thin Film Limiter Module Rev. V2 50 to 4000 MHz Features Product Image Very Wide Bandwidth Good Suppression of Even Order Harmonics Low Insertion Loss: 3.5 dB (typ.) Description The L42 signal limiter is a discrete hybrid design, which uses thin film manufacturing processes for accurate performance and high reliability. This de- sign uses Schottky bridge quad and anti-parallel di- odes, which provide consistent limiting levels over a broadband frequency range. Both TO-8 and SMTO- 8 packages are hermetically sealed, and MIL-STD- 883 environmental screening is available.
