Crane’s proven sensor and switch family are used on multiple applications, including landing gear, doors, secondary flight controls and thrust reversers. Crane’s sensors have recently been chosen for several engine nacelle applications, including fan cowl latch and thrust reverser sensing for Trent XWB, LEAP-1A and PurePower 1100 G engines for A350 XWB and A320 neo aircraft, respectively.

The new Rohde & Schwarz transmitters feature outstanding efficiency, compact design and flexible configurations. They fulfill the demands of the market in the best possible way. The Tx9 transmitter portfolio now covers the frequency bands II, III, IV and V.
Operating at L-Band, this SP9T solid state switch offers 1.6 dB insertion loss, >45 dB isolation, better than 1.5:1 VSWR, TTL control and handles up to 100 W CW. This part features a dual directional coupler on the input and each of the 9 outputs has a coupled port (26 dB).
In another strong move into the high frequency bands, AtlanTecRF has announced a new range of coaxial power dividers. These 40 GHz products, designated AKD, are available in a choice of 2, 4 or 8 ways and feature bandwidths starting at 18 to 40 GHz but extending to the full six plus Octaves of 1.0 to 40.0 GHz.
PMI Model No. P2T-1G1R1G-25-R-TFF-40W is a single pole, two throw, hermetically sealed, reflective switch designed to operate over the 1.0 to 1.1GHz frequency range. This model is designed to handle 40 W averageinput powers and 4 KW peak having a 3 usec pulse width and 1 % duty cycle.
Agilent Technologies Inc. introduced the industry’s first power device analyzer for circuit design. The Agilent B1506A is a single-box solution that automatically characterizes all power device parameters across a wide range of operating conditions and temperatures (-50° C to +250° C), at up to 1500 amps and 3 kV.
Agilent Technologies Inc. announced a series of enhancements for its MXA and EXA X-Series signal analyzers. The enhancements are ideal for engineers performing wireless communications and general-purpose testing at various phases of the product life cycle, from R&D and design verification to manufacturing and installation.
The SemiGen SLP7100 series of limiter diodes is processed with a high-resistivity epi that has thin, intrinsic layers. These devices are typically in the 2 to 20 micron range of epi thickness and can be gold-doped to achieve specific performance goals. They are used in passive or active limiter designs in the 100 MHz to 30 GHz frequency range. Ideal applications for these diodes are waveguide, stripline, coax, or microstrip, in single- or multi-chip devices.
