TGL2217 0.1 20 GHz 10 Watt VPIN Limiter Product Description Qorvos TGL2217 is a high power, wideband GaAs VPIN limiter capable of protecting sensitive receive channel components against high power incident signals. The TGL2217 does not require DC bias and achieves a low insertion loss all in a small form factor. These features allow for simple integration with minimal impact to system performance. The TGL2217 operates from 0.120 GHz with low insertion loss of less than 0.7 dB. Receive protection is rated up to 10 W incident pulsed-power with a low flat leakage of less than 18.5 dBm. The TGL2217 is offered in die form. It is well suited for Product Features both commercial and defense related applications. Frequency Range: 0.120GHz Insertion Loss: < 0.7 dB Peak Power Handling: 10 W (pulsed) Flat Leakage: < 18.5 dBm (pulsed) Spike Leakage: < 20.5 dBm Passive (no DC bias required) Recovery Time: < 40 nS Die Size: 1.50 x 1.0 x 0.10mm Performance is typical across frequency.
