Richardson RFPD Inc. announced the availability and full design support capabilities for a silicon carbide power MOSFET from Wolfspeed, a Cree Company. According to Wolfspeed, the C2M0045170D is the industry’s first 1700 V, 45 mΩ SiC MOSFET. It offers high-speed switching with low capacitances, avalanche ruggedness, fast intrinsic diode with low reverse recovery (Qrr), and it is easy to parallel and simple to drive.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for a small cell duplexer. The Qorvo TQQ6107 BAW technology offers high isolation for LTE Band 7 uplink (2535 MHz) and down link (2655 MHz) filter requirements in base stations, repeaters, signal boosters and small cells. With full 70 MHz bandwidth, in band insertion loss is only 3.4 dB while UL/DL attenuation is up to 48 dB. The TQQ6107 requires no external matching and handles 29 dBm of power.
Model SWF-74305350-12-B1 is an E band, waveguide bandpass filter that is used to pass the frequency range of 71 to 76 GHz, while rejecting the frequency range of DC to 67 GHz and 81 to 90 GHz. The nominal insertion loss of the bandpass filter is 2 dB and the typical rejection is 50 dB. The standard interface offers WR-12 waveguides with UG-387/U flanges. Various custom models are available.
Model SSR-9630831560-10-S1 is a W-Band receiver. The receiver has a typical conversion gain of 15 dB with a typical RF input power of -60 dBm in the frequency range of 92 to 100 GHz and an IF output frequency range of DC to 4 GHz. The required LO power and frequency range are +5 dBm and 16.0 GHz . The LO and IF port are both equipped with female SMA connectors and the RF port is a WR-12 waveguide with a UG-387/U flange.
Model SFS-73336315-12SFKF-E1-M is an E Band sub-harmonically pumped mixer that utilizes high performance GaAs MMIC chips to offer superior RF performance. The required LO frequency and power are 35 to 38 GHz and +16 dBm, respectively. The mixer exhibits 15 dB nominal conversion loss in the RF frequency band of 70 to 76 GHz. The amplitude unbalance is within ±1 dB and phase unbalance is ±20 degrees typically. IF frequency bandwidth is from DC to 5 GHz.
Model SOM-94308315-10-M1is a W-Band mechanically tuned gunn oscillator utilizing a high performance InP Gunn diode and proprietary cavity design to deliver +15 dBm typical power directly with a frequency tuning range of 90 to 98 GHz. Product delivers low AM/FM noise and harmonic emissions in the wide mechanical tuning range. The Gunn oscillator is equipped with a micrometer tuner for quick frequency tuning and setting as bench top equipment.
Models SWF-65302350-15-B1, SWF-61302350-15-B1, SWF-63302350-15-B1 and SWF-58302350-15-B1 are V band, waveguide bandpass filters designed for WiGig applications. All four filters offer a 2 GHz passband with 50 dB typical rejection. The filters also have a nominal insertion loss of 2.5 dB. Since both low and high end cut off frequencies can be selected by modifying the design, custom models are available.
Model STO-12-S1 is an E Band vector network analyzer (VNA) frequency extender designed to achieve full 2-port, S-parameter testing at 60 to 90 GHz. It is compatible with modern vector network analyzers such as the Rohde & Schwarz ZVA Series and the Keysight PNA-X Series. The frequency extenders can achieve a dynamic range of 90 dB and are great for testing many E band devices including passive and active devices.
