Device Overview

General Description

The QH-0R714 is a 0.7-14.5 GHz, multi-purpose broadband 3dB quadrature hybrid. The multisection tri-plate stripline design exhibits excellent amplitude balance with broadband quadrature phasing (90o) between the output ports. Applications include single sideband upconverters, image rejection downconverters, IQ modulators, balanced amplifiers, microwave correlators and microwave Butler matrices. Custom designs are also available; contact the factory for details.
