Aeroflex-Metelics introduces High Power Handling Limiter Modules

The LM Series of surface mount diode limiters are available for high power receiver protection over frequency ranges as broad as 20 MHz to 8 GHz.

Aeroflex has introduced 8 new power limiter modules for use in military and commercial applications. Spanning frequencies up to 8.5GHz with power levels up to 100W CW and 1,000W pulsed, these limiter modules are ideal for octave band RADAR applications. Some models also include built-in DC blocks.
