General Description
Pin Configuration
The TriQuint TGL2201-
SM is a packaged dual stage GaAs
VPIN Limiter that operates over the 2 to 12
GHz band.
Vertical PIN diodes provide the limiting action at high
input signal levels and low loss at small signals.
The TGL2201-
SM is suitable for a variety of wideband
systems such as LNA/receiver protection in radars, phase
d
arrays, and jammers.
Lead-free and RoHS compliant

Applications Information
PC Board Layout
Top RF layer is 0.008 thick Rogers RO4003, є
r
= 3.55.
Metal layers are 1-oz copper. Microstrip 50 line width is
.0174”. The microstrip line tapers to a 0.014width at the
connector interface. This PCB is designed for the
Southwest Microwave end launch connector 1092-01A-5.
The pad pattern shown has been developed and tested for
optimized assembly at TriQuint Semiconductor. The PCB
land pattern has been developed to accommodate lead and
package tolerances. Since surface mount processes vary
from company to company, careful process development
is recommended.

Mounting Configuration
Notes:
1. Ground / thermal vias are critical for the proper performance of this device. Vias should use a .35mm (#80 / .0135”) diameter drill and
have a final plated thru diameter of 0.25 mm (.010”).
2. Add as much copper as possible to inner and outer layers near the part to ensure optimal thermal performance.
3. For further technical information, refer to the TGL2201-SM Product Information page
