RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for Peregrine Semiconductor’s new, adjustable power limiter providing protection for up to 50W pulsed RF input. For CW applications, the PE45140 handles up to 10W of power. The adjustable power limiting threshold, from +22 to +32dBm, enables flexibility across different platforms and architectures. Peregrine’s UltraCMOS, monolithic solution is 8X smaller than comparable GaAs PIN diode solutions and no external components are required. The PE45140 maintains a 64dBm IIP3 for high linearity applications in LMR and public safety radios. Receiver protection in SDR tactical radios averts damage from intentional jammers or ESD strikes with…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for a band 25 duplexer from TriQuint. The TQM963001 is a high-performance Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) duplexer designed to meet the strict CDMA requirements in the PCS extension band BC14 and provide excellent insertion loss (typically 1.8dB), cross isolation and linearity for LTE B25. Downlink isolation of 50 dB minimum & GPS rejection of >40 dB eliminate the need for a transmit filter. The TriQuint TQM963001 has single-Ended (SE), 50 Ohm downlink & uplink ports for ease of design. Excellent triple beat performance of -88 dBc typifies TriQuint BAW filters as does guaranteed…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for a 50 ohm absorptive switch from TriQuint. The TQC0015 internal terminations can handle a maximum CW power of up to 2W. This performance is enhanced with an enable-pin functionality and compatibility with 1.8 or 3.3V control signals, making the TQC0015 useful in small cell applications. Typical isolation at 1GHz is 60dB with associated insertion loss of 0.5dB for performance in test equipment applications. Linearity (IIP3) is rated at 56dBm. The TriQuint TQC0015 supports operation to 6GHz and is available in a 4x4mm SMT package compatible with previous TriQuint switches and similar products…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for Rosenberger’s 15K101-40ME4 Micro-RF test switch connector. The 15K101-40ME4 Micro-RF test switch is an ultra-miniature (1.8 mm x 1.9 mm, height 1.5 mm), low-cost, surface mount, coax “switch” connector for the verification of antenna/circuit performance in any kind of small device. The connector can be used for applications that require a low-cost, SMD, coax, point-of-entry to a PCB and/or a switch for temporarily disconnecting the on-board connection to the PCB in circuits up to 6GHz. Useful applications for the 15K101-40ME4 include prototype boards where installation of a switch connector can isolate portions of…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for two new 45W GaN on SiC transistors from TriQuint. The T1G4004532-FL (flanged) and T1G4004532-FS (earless) are wideband, DC to 3.5GHz devices offering 17dB of gain, nearly twice that of competing GaN devices. Both transistors are input matched for S-band operation and both the T1G4004532-FL and T1G4004532-FS operate from a 32V supply. Manufactured on TriQuint’s TQGan25 process, the devices utilize a low thermal resistance base material and are housed in industry standard packaging for use in Radar, EW and general purpose, wideband applications.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for a fully integrated 802.11a/n/ac FEM, with bypass LNA + T/R SPDT switch from TriQuint. The TQL1600 incorporates an LNA with high-gain/low gain mode. When gain is required, the FEM offers 13dB. The alternate, bypass mode gain is -7dB. Noise figure from the LNA measures 2.5dB. TriQuint’s TQL1600 features internally matched I/O ports for ease of design. CMOS-compatible logic controls an integrated shutdown control pin. Applications include wireless infrastructure, gaming and set top boxes. The TQL1600 comes in a small, 2.5mm square QFN package.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for a 10-15.4GHz downconverter from TriQuint. The TGC2610-SM provides an industry leading, 1.6dB noise figure. The Intermediate Frequency (IF) is DC-4GHz with a Local Oscillator (LO) frequency input from 6-19GHz. TGC2610-SM conversion gain is 14dB due to integrated buffer amplifiers. TriQuint’s TGC2610-SM comes in a 28-lead, 5x5mm QFN surface mount package.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for the TQC9305, a 0.7 to 3.6GHz Digitally controlled, Variable Gain Amplifier (DVGA) from TriQuint. The TQC9305 features a shutdown pin function for TDD applications and offers 40dBm OIP3 for linear operation. The integrated attenuator has 31dB range in 1dB steps.
