Description

The Isolink CLA series of silicon limiter diodes provides passive receiver protection over a wide range of frequencies from 100 MHz to over 20 GHz. These devices use a well-established silicon technology resulting in high resistivity and tightly controlled base width PIN limiter diodes. Limiter circuits using these devices perform with strong limiting action and low loss. The CLA series consists of ten 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 series, CLA4602 series, CLA4604 series, and CLA4605 series are designed for low-level and cleanup applications. The CLA4603 series, CLA4606 series, CLA4607 series, CLA4608 series and CLA4610 series are planar designs designated for high-power and mid-range applications. The CLA4609 series thick base width mesa diode is designed for coarse limiter-stage applications. The absolute maximum ratings of the CLA diode series are provided in Table 1. Electrical specifications are specified in Table 2. Typical performance characteristics are provided in Table 3 and Figures 1 through 4.

Table 1. CLA Series Absolute Maximum Ratings1 set at or below their nominal value. Exceeding any of the limits listed here may result in permanent damage to the device. ESD HANDLING: Although this device is designed to be as robust as possible, electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage this device. potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD handling precautions should be used at all times. Table 2. CLA Series Electrical Specifications1,2 (1 of 2)
