Low-Loss Wideband Couplers: WH0530TF/WH1727F

June 12, 2014

WH0530TF    WH1727FNew Low-Loss Wideband Couplers for 4G LTE and EW Systems 

EMC Technology, a global power house in RF/microwave resistives and signal distribution passive components, has released a new series of low-loss wideband hybrid couplers.

Part of the innovative HybriX® signal distribution product family, WH0530TF and WH1727F are the flagships of the new wideband hybrid coupler series.  Optimized for 0.5 to 3.5 GHz, WH0530TF features wideband operation without the performance penalties associated with traditional multi-staged hybrid coupler architecture.  Power combining efficiency is maximized with its low insertion loss and excellent amplitude and phase balance.

Another new addition to the HybriX® family, WH1727F offers a very low 0.1-dB typical insertion loss from 1.7 to 2.7 GHz in a compact package.  Also offering 30 dB of typical isolation, WH1727F provides the high performance demanded by today’s 4G LTE systems.

In addition to EMC Technology’s Thermopad® temperature variable attenuators and high power resistives, HybriX® products have been the preferred choice by RF and microwave designers in commercial wireless and space/military industries.  Samples and evaluation boards are available now for these new low-loss wideband hybrid couplers.
