ADVANTAGES: The Microphase-designed and engineered CDL Series Limiter Detectors feature all-silicon semiconductor circuits housed in hermetically sealed modules. Standard models are supplied with integral DC returns and male SMA input, female SMA output connectors. Custom modifications include: wider or narrower RF bandwidths, tracked pairs or sets, higher power handling and special connector configurations. Receive excellent electrical performance, environmental stability and mechanical reliability. These units can be adapted for custom configurations. Compact and very rugged, all products are 100% reliability screened, and readily available.

Schottky Detectors 0.5 to 40.0 GHz
The CSM, CST, & CSP Series Schottky Detectors provide a comprehensive line of detectors covering most applications. These three AC coupled biased Schottky Detector designs may be optimized for frequency range, voltage sensitivity, flatness, or VSWR parameters. The CSM Series provides a very broadband, high voltage sensitivity, and good flatness response, with a low video impedance of 350 Ω at 150 microamps of bias. The CST series provides very high voltage sensitivity, good VSWR at both low and high input power levels and excellent flatness response. The video impedance is 650 Ω, typically, at 100 microamps of bias. The CSP series offers low VSWR response at both low and high input power levels over broadbands, exceptional flatness response, but with the performance trade off of lower voltage sensitivities when compared to the CSM and CST. The video impedance is 350 Ω, typically at 150 microamps of bias.

ADVANTAGES: Microphase-designed and engineered CSM, CST & CSP Series Detectors may be optimized for particular performance parameters such as bandwidth, sensitivity or VSWR. Compact and very rugged, these detectors utilize sealed glass module construction and provide excellent frequency flatness. This series provides excellent electrical performance, environmental stability and mechanical reliability. All products are 100% reliability screened, fully productized and readily available-yet still cost effective. Notes 1. Model numbers are for negative polarity. For POSITIVE polarity, add suffix-P to the model number.
