MEQ10-45CSP1
Chip Scale Package MMIC 45 GHz Equalizer
The MEQ10-45CSP1 is a passive MMIC equalizer CSP ideal for compensating for low pass filtering effects in RF/microwave and high speed digital systems. The MEQ10-45CSP1 provides positive slope from DC to 45GHz with a DC attenuation of 10dB. The new chip scale package allows for extreme miniaturization of the SMT footprint. The unique design offers superior return loss to competitors in an extremely small footprint. GaAs MMIC technology provides consistent unit-to-unit performance in a small, low cost form factor.
| Parameter | Typ | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Frequency Range | 0 to 45 | GHz |
| Return Loss | 13 | dB |
| Insertion Loss | 0.7 | dB |
| Insertion Loss at DC | 10 | dB |

An x-ray view of the MEQ10-45CSP1 package outline drawing is shown below. The MEQ equalizers are symmetrical allowing Port 1 or Port 2 to be used as the input.
| Port | Function | Description | DC Equivalent Circuit |
|---|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground | SM package ground path is provided through the ground paddle. |  |
| Pin 1 | Input/Output | Pin 1 is DC connected to ground through a resistor. DC block is required if voltage present. |  |
| Pin 2 | Input/Output | Pin 2 is DC connected to ground through a resistor. DC block is required if voltage present. |  |
