Device Overview
General Description
The MPD-0R502CH is a small footprint MMIC 2-Way Wilkinson power divider/power splitter featuring high isolation. The MPD-0R502CH uses a mix of lumped element and distributed circuits to significantly reduce the footprint while maintaining isolation at low frequencies. It is much smaller than a printed PCB Wilkinson Power Divider/Combiner. It can be used as an equal amplitude/phase power splitter or a power combiner with excellent isolation. Tight fabrication tolerances result in less unit-to-unit variation than traditional power divider technologies, allowing for accurate simulations using the provided S3P file taken from measured production units.
Features
- Can be used as a splitter or combiner
- Excellent equal amplitude and phase balance
- High isolation
- RoHS compliant
Applications
- Test Equipment
- Electronic Warfare
- Radar and satellite communications
- High Channel Count Systems
