Summary:
PIN diodes and microstrip have found widespread use in modern microwave systems. A design theory for the design of microwave PIN diode switches and limiters is presented. Resonant mi crostrip transmission line networks are shown to improve the performance of packaged diodes. A systematic approach is used to analyze the transmission line networks. Four types of resonant diode switches are presented: an unmatched reverse mode switch, a matched reverse mode switch, a series forward mode switch, and a shunt forward mode switch. The utility of this approach is illustrated by designing and testing several PIN diode modules at both C and X-Band.
