Up/Down-Converter IC
The AWMF-0218 is a highly integrated silicon frequency-conversion IC for 5G phased array applications. When used together with Anokiwave’s beamformer IC products, this device enables low-cost, high performance and feature-rich 5G phased array systems. The half-duplex IC integrates Tx single-sideband up-conversion and Rx image-reject down-conversion functionality. An on-chip frequency multiplier simplifies board-level integration with external PLLs. The IF up/down-converter ICs are fully compatible with the respective Anokiwave beamformer ICs, sharing common mechanical and electrical interfaces and designed for cascade integration from IF to antenna and back.

Ferrite Junction Waveguide Isolators
Cernexwave’s Ferrite Junction Waveguide Isolators are great solutions for protecting sensitive equipment from excessive signal reflection. These compact units handle high power and can be tailored to a narrow or broad frequency range at any microwave or mmWave band. The precision internals provide high isolation with the lowest possible insertion loss to allow systems to operate at peak efficiency.

Broadband Resistive Power Divider
The HL9479 is a 6 dB power divider that provides outstanding amplitude and phase symmetrical power division from DC to 110 GHz. This ROHS-compliant product is designed using a three-resistor network resulting in outputs that are nominally attenuated to 6 dB, and all ports are impedance-matched to 50 Ohms when the ports are terminated. They are suitable for use in 224 Gbps PAM4 communications systems, high speed analog-to-digital conversion, frequency response testing for differential devices and many other applications.

MRFXF0025 5 to 1220 MHz Balun
The MRFXF0025 has been recently characterized and specified down to 5 MHz. This makes this balun an ideal choice for input devices in both forward and return path applications. Its low insertion loss (< 0.8 dB typical), flat RF response and excellent return loss (24 dB typical) has made it popular for Qorvo’s QPL-88xx series amplifiers. Excellent phase and amplitude balance, low frequency return loss and a flat response are highly desirable features when running circuits at high output levels for both forward and return path CATV signal applications.

EMI Capacitors
Special Hermetic Products’ EMI capacitors are designed to minimize stress/strain on both the internal components and the external solder joints, which connect them to their host housing. The stress/strain considerations of these devices are crucial to their long-term reliability. It is critical that the recommended housing design geometry be followed and that the appropriate device be chosen for the host housing material. SHP supplies free assistance for ensuring the consideration of all relative factors in the selection of the optimum device for any given application.

CABLES & CONNECTORS
Patented Waveguide Connectors
Uni-Guide™ waveguide connectors are ideal for realizing hermetically sealed waveguide ports. The patented connectors are compatible with the glass beads and threaded holes used by standard 2.4 mm and 1.85 mm coaxial connectors. By attaching directly to component packages designed for coaxial connectors, Uni-Guide™ connectors eliminate the need for separate coaxial-to-waveguide adapters.
