Product Overview: Microwave Detectors: 10 MHz To 40 GHz Testing And Term Definition

Krytar manufactures microwave detectors using zero bias silicon schottky diodes and planar doped detector diodes. Testing and Term definition for performance of the two types are identical.

OPERATING FREQUENCY
Krytar tests operation performance of detectors using an Automatic Network Analyzer which currently has the ability to measure performance of Krytar Detectors to 40 GHz. Krytar offers two types of Detectors. 200 Series Zero Bias Schottky Detectors have a video bypass capacitance of 30 pF and operate from 10 MHz to 40 GHz. 300 Series Zero Bias Schottky Detectors have a video bypass capacitance of 3.0 pF and operate from 100 MHz to 40 GHz. 700 Series Planar Doped Barrier Detectors have a Video Bypass Capacitance of 3 pF and operate from 100 MHz to 40 GHz. 600 Series Planar Doped Barrier Detectors have a video bypass capacitance of 30 pF and operate from 10 MHz to 40 GHz. Note that a Video Bypass Capacitance of 3.0 pF will yield a risetime of less than 20 nanoseconds. 30 pF Video Bypass Capacitance will yield a longer risetime.
