Mini-Circuits MAC mixers employ a unique new design and a highly repeatable, tightly controlled, automated process that delivers industry-leading reliability at a remarkably affordable price. Schottky diode quads meeting our strict specifications are bonded to a multilayer integrated LTCC substrate, and then hermetically sealed under a controlled atmosphere with gold-plated covers and eutectic AuSn solder.

Introduction to a series of coaxial cables that includes a Quick-Lock connector that mates securely with a standard female SMA connector

Mini-Circuits announces current updates on a recently released oscillator. The ZX95-2600-S+ is a voltage controlled oscillator that is designed to operate from 1650 to 2600 MHz for Cable TV applications. It is built using Mini-Circuits' proven unibody construction which integrates the RF connectors with the case body to shield against unwanted signals and noise.

Mini-Circuits announces updates on an oscillator that was recently released. The MOS-868-119+ is a voltage controlled oscillator that is designed to operate from 805 to 868 MHz. For the rugged TV broadcast environment, this oscillator provides a small, shielded package to help keep out unwanted signals.

Mini-Circuits PHA-1+ Ultra High Dynamic Range MMIC Amplifier supports low intermodulation amplification over the broad frequency range of 50 MHz to 6 GHz. This design provides a unique combination of high Output IP3 (typically +42 dBm) while maintaining a noise figure less than 3 dB up to 4 GHz and typical gain of 14 dB at 2 GHz.

For applications requiring a highly stable single frequency, Mini-Circuits’ engineering team can customize a low noise synthesized source for any frequency from 56 to 6010 MHz. Fixed-frequency synthesizers feature low phase noise with spurious performance of -90 dBc or better. They operate with low power consumption and are supplied in compact surface-mount or connectorized packages.

Mini-Circuits VAT, HAT, and UNAT fixed attenuators provide precision performance at economical prices. Covering from DC up to 6 GHz and available with attenuation values from 1 to 30 dB, the rugged attenuators feature innovative unibody construction for outstanding reliability. These low-cost fixed attenuators offer the low VSWR, outstanding attenuation flatness, and repeatability that make them ideal for a wide range of laboratory and production applications.

Ceramic Balun RF Transformer TCN2-45+ has a maximum ratings operating temperature of -55°C to 100°C Storage Temperature -55°C to 100° with a C Input RF power.
