In keeping with its well renowned policy of maintaining stock of high specification microwave components, AtlanTecRF announces inventory of the new ultra broad band 180 degree hybrid coupler covering an instantaneous bandwidth of 2 to 18 GHz.

Model AH180-020180 is a compact stripline hybrid coupler providing 180 degree phase shift and in-phase outputs from two combined signals in the 2 to 18 GHz range with maximum amplitude unbalance of +/-1.2 dB and maximum phase unbalance of 12 degrees.

AtlanTecRF’s C.E.O., Geoff Burling, making the announcement, said, “Our objective is to provide the microwave design engineer with a quick turn-around in the supply of not only industry standard commodity components but also in the high-spec items which deliver the system performance desired. This 180 degree hybrid coupler is just one such item among many that we now hold in our substantial inventory.”

The stripline construction is contained within a rugged aluminium alloy housing and features four hole flange mount SMA connectors with mating interface to MIL-C-39012. The size of this high performing unit is just 82 x 36 x 11 mm and the external finish is in high grade gray paint.

Across the whole operating frequency range the maximum insertion loss is just 2.0dB while this 50 watt power rated hybrid coupler achieves isolation of 15dB minimum and typical VSWR of 1.5:1. The operating temperature range is the full military -55 to +85C.

AH180-020180 is just one new model from a comprehensive range of 180 degree and 90 degree hybrid couplers as well as in-phase power dividers and directional couplers which comprise AtlanTecRF’s high-specification stripline passive component range held in stock for fast delivery and quick design-in.
