Device Overview
General Description
The MPD4-0108CSP2 is a small footprint MMIC 1-8 GHz 4-Way power divider/power splitter featuring high 30 dB isolation and low 2.6 dB insertion loss in our compact CSP2 chip scale package. 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 S5P file taken from measured production units. The 2.5 mm CSP2 package enables extreme miniaturization of SMT footprint making the MPD4-0108CSP2 ideal for applications prioritizing low SWaP.
Features
- 4-way splitter or combiner in a compact 2.5mm package
