Component

RF limiterBroadband limiter10 MHz to 6 GHzReceiver protection3 mm × 3 mm

MLA0160A1 is a 10 MHz to 6 GHz surface-mount RF limiter intended to protect sensitive receiver inputs while maintaining low insertion loss.

Best for

  • Broadband receiver-input protection
  • Low-noise amplifier input protection
  • RF and microwave signal chains

Avoid if

  • Compliance or lifecycle documentation is mandatory but unavailable
  • The application exceeds the stated 15 W maximum input power

Check before use

  • Confirm limiting level under the actual RF waveform and duty cycle
  • Use a controlled-impedance RF layout with short ground connections
  • Validate thermal and power handling in the final assembly
