ABSTRACT:
Integrated circuit structure and processing is provided for a high power limiter including at least a first anti-parallel array of monolithically integrated Schottky diodes. In a further embodiment, integrated circuit structure and processing is provided for an MMIC, microwave and millimeter wave monolithic integrated circuit, including an amplifier and a high power limiter monolithically integrated on the same substrate.
