DATA SHEET CLA Series: Silicon Limiter Diode Bondable Chips Applications LNA receiver protection Commercial and defense radar Features Established Skyworks limiter diode process High-power, mid-range, and cleanup designs Low insertion loss: 0.1 dB 2.6 GHz Peak power handling to +74 dBm Ultra-low spike leakage power Tight control of I layer base width Mesa and planar chip designs Description TM Skyworks Green products are compliant with The Skyworks CLA series of silicon limiter diodes provides all applicable legislation and are halogen-free. passive receiver protection over a wide range of frequencies from For additional information, refer to Skyworks 100 MHz to over 30 GHz. These devices use the well-established TM Denition of Green , document number Skyworks silicon technology resulting in high resistivity and tightly SQ040074. controlled base width PIN limiter diodes. Limiter circuits using these devices perform with strong limiting action and low loss. The CLA series consists of eleven individual chip designs of different intrinsic region base widths and capacitances designed to accommodate multi-stage limiter applications. The mesa- constructed, thin base width, low capacitance CLA4601-000, CLA4602-000, CLA4604-000, CLA4605-000, and CLA4611-000 are designed for low-level and cleanup applications. The CLA4603-000, CLA4606-000 through CLA4608-000, and CLA4610-000 are planar designs designated for high-power and mid-range applications. The CLA4609-000 thick base width mesa diode is designed for coarse limiter-stage applications. Skyworks Solutions, Inc.

There is no damage to device with only one parameter set at the limit and all other parameters set at or below their nominal value. Exceeding any of the limits listed here may result in permanent damage to the device. CAUTION: Although this device is designed to be as robust as possible, electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage this device. This device must be protected at all times from ESD. Static charges may easily produce potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD precautions should be used at all times.
