QPP0100SR

Overview

The QPP0100SR is an X-Band high-power VPIN limiter designed for robust short-pulse input signal handling up to 100W. It operates within a frequency range of 6 to 12 GHz, providing exceptionally low insertion loss of less than 1.2 dB across the band. The device features flat leakage of 21 dBm and spike leakage of 22 dBm, ensuring effective signal protection. Packaged in a 20-QFN (4x4) surface-mount format, it supports board mounting for integration into radar and communication systems requiring reliable power limiting.

Feature Summary

• High-power VPIN limiter architecture capable of withstanding short-pulse inputs up to 100W
• Low insertion loss performance under 1.2 dB across the operational bandwidth
• Controlled leakage characteristics with specified flat and spike leakage levels

Applications

• Radar system front-end protection
• Communication transceiver signal conditioning
• Test and measurement equipment input stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix SR against official Qorvo documentation to confirm reel packaging specifications and moisture sensitivity classification. Ensure compatibility with standard SMD/SMT assembly processes. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer declarations prior to procurement. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to validate authenticity and traceability.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high peak power handling in the X-Band spectrum. Consider the 20-QFN package dimensions for PCB layout constraints. Evaluate thermal management requirements based on the 100W pulsed power rating. Compare insertion loss specifications against system budget requirements to ensure signal integrity is maintained during normal operation.
