For additional information, refer to Skyworks Definition of GreenTM, document number SQ04–0074. The CLA4611-085LF is a surface-mountable, low-capacitance silicon PIN limiter diode designed as a shunt connected PIN diode for high power limiter applications from 10 MHz to over 6 GHz. Maximum resistance at 10 mA is 1.2 Ω and maximum capacitance at 38 V is 0.25 pF (typical). The combination of low junction capacitance, low parasitic inductance, low thermal resistance, and nominal 12 um I-region width, makes the CLA4611-085LF useful in large signal limiter applications. The threshold level is +25 dBm, nominal. A block diagram of the CLA4611-085LF is shown in Figure 1. The absolute maximum ratings of the CLA4611-085LF are provided in Table 1.

ESD HANDLING: 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 when handling or transporting. Static charges may easily produce 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.

When there is no large input signal present, the impedance of the limiter diode is at its maximum, which produces minimum insertion loss, typically less than 0.2 dB. The presence of a large input signal temporarily forces the impedance of the diode to a much lower value, which produces an impedance mismatch that reflects the majority of the input signal power back towards its source. During the limiting process, a DC current is generated by the PIN limiter diode. The current is not the result of rectification, but is the result of charge carriers being forced into the I layer by the forward alternations of the large input signal. A complete path must be provided for this current or the diode is not capable of limiting. Therefore, an RF choke or similar structure must be provided to complete the path for DC current flow. The DC block capacitors shown in Figure 2 are optional; they protect the limiter diode from external DC voltage that may be present in the source or load circuits. A cross section of the suggested printed circuit board design is shown in Figure 3. The via shown in this view is critical, both for electrical performance and for thermal performance. It is recommended that several vias should be placed under the entire footprint of the exposed paddle (pin 2) to minimize both electrical inductance to the system ground and thermal resistance to the system heat sink. For more information about the operation of limiter diodes, refer to the Skyworks Application Note, PIN Limiter Diodes in Receiver Protectors, document number 200480.

Insertion Loss and Output Power vs Input Power (f = 2.6 GHz, Board Loss Included) High-Power Limiter Design Application The CLA4611-085LF PIN limiter diode is designed for shunt applications in receiver protection power limiter circuits. Compared to other surface mount packages, the design of the QFN package produces lower thermal resistance and also reduces the effects of the parasitic inductance of the anode bond wires. A cross-sectional view of the CLA4611-085LF PIN limiter diode is shown in Figure 6. The cathode of the die is soldered directly to the top of the exposed paddle. This paddle is composed of copper, so its thermal resistance is very low. Bond Wire (2 Places) The copper ground paddle minimizes the total thermal resistance between the I layer, which is the location where most heat is generated under normal operation, and the surface to which the package is mounted. Minimal thermal resistance between the I layer and the external environment minimizes junction temperature. The electrically equivalent circuit of the CLA4611-085LF PIN limiter diode is shown in Figure 7. The inductances of pins 1 and 2, as well as the inductances of the bond wires are in series with the input and output transmission lines of the external circuit rather than the portion of the circuit that contains the shunt PIN limiter diode.
