Fairview Microwave has expanded its product line with 15 new analog and TTL programmable voltage-controlled phase shifters. These cutting-edge products cover wide frequency bands ranging from 0.5GHz to 33GHz, including the popular market bands VHF, L, S, C, X, Ku, K and Ka.
The new release includes eight voltage-controlled analogue attenuator models covering 0.5GHz to 33GHz with 180° and 360° phase range. Also, seven models of 5-bit or 6-bit TTL logic-controlled programmable phase shifters cover 1GHz to 37GHz with a 360° phase range.
These product lines are created with high reliability and are housed in rugged, MIL-grade coaxial packages. They supply an operational temperature range of -40C to +85C (-40F to +185F) and support maximum RF input power levels up to 30dBm.
These innovative phase-shifter modules are critical in many RF and microwave systems that require precise control and testing. From RADAR and steerable communications link to high linearity amplifiers, the applications are diverse and include sectors such as electronic defence, microwave radio, VSAT, SATCOM, 5G, research and development, and more.
The newly launched models are constructed for top-notch reliability, and the designs are guaranteed to meet environmental test conditions for altitude, vibration, humidity and shock. The analog models will support solder control pins for manual voltage control, while the TTL programmable models offer micro-D connectors with nine or 15 pins for command control.
“These new analog and TTL programmable voltage-controlled phase shifters show our commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions,” said product line manager Kevin Hietpas. “By offering both reliability and flexibility in a rugged, MIL-grade package, we’re ensuring that our customers have the best tools to accomplish their projects across different markets.”
