Peregrine’s UltraCMOS power limiters can protect:
- RF ports in test-and-measurement equipment
- RF front ends and low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) in LMRs
- RF receivers in wireless-infrastructure equipment
- Tactical radio receivers from intentional jammers in military warfare
- Transceiver (TRX) modules in radar systems
In order to achieve repeatable and reliable power protection, customers currently face challenges because it takes so long to design and validate PIN-diode power-limiter circuits and the multiple external components this architecture requires. With Peregrine’s new, all-in-one architecture, customers will be able to significantly reduce time to market and cost.
Availability
On display at EDI CON Booth #512, Peregrine plans to release the first two of its UltraCMOS power limiters in May 2014:
- The PE45140 is a 20 MHz - 2GHz, 5 W power limiter designed for professional portable and mobile radios, such as tactical radios and LMRs, as well as HF, VHF, UHF, L-band radar transceivers.
- The PE45450 is a 9KHz - 6GHz, 5 W power limiter designed for test-and-measurement systems, L/S/C-band radar transceivers, counter-measure receivers and wireless receivers.
Both power limiters feature an adjustable limiting threshold, unbiased power limiting and operation in two modes – power limiting or power reflecting. Images, videos and additional details are available in our press kit.
