A transceiver assembly includes a radio frequency (RF) transceiver configured to transmit and receive signals, and a transceiver controller operatively coupled with the transceiver via a transmit path and a receive path. A power amplifier disposed along the transmit path is configured to amplify RF signals for transmission by the transceiver. A power detection line is configured to provide power control feedback to the transceiver controller indicating an amplitude of current flowing from the power amplifier to the transceiver. A directionally-specific protection element disposed along the power detection line is configured to allow the power control feedback to flow to the transceiver controller over the power detection line in a first direction, while preventing at least some electrical noise originating from the transceiver controller from flowing through the power detection line in a second direction, thereby preventing the electrical noise from entering the receive path.
