E-Band Positive Amplitude Detector

SFD-603903-12SF-P1 is an E Band amplitude detector that can be used for full or narrow band applications. The detector is zero biased and intended for small signal detection purposes. With a distinct circuitry design and careful diode selection, the detector exhibits high sensitivity and extremely flat output characteristics across the full waveguide operating bandwidth. The detector is designed to have a 10 MHz video bandwidth and a 1 MΩ video output impedance. The minimum detectable signal level is approximately -50 dBm. On the other hand, the return loss of this type of detector is poor in general. The model STD-12SF-PI is recommended if the high return loss is desired.
