RLC Electronics’ miniature ultra-flat detectors utilize a zero-bias Schottky design. The microwave power is coupled directly to the components, reducing package parasitics and transition mismatches. This design results in a very low VSWR, as well as a flat, smooth output over a wide bandwidth. Options available include negative or positive output, a choice of three output connectors, and operation to 26.5 GHz or 40 GHz.
