RF signal quality is a key concern when building an RF system. Most RF systems and are designed and built to operate in the linear range. The linear range is the region of operation where the output power is some constant multiple of the input power. When the input is driven past the linear region, non-linear behaviors begin to develop, mainly the generation of harmonics and intermodulation products at the output of the device. Harmonics are unwanted output signals whose frequency is an integer multiple of the input signal frequency.
|
Intermodulation products are a bit more complex. When two closely spaced signals (tones), f1 and f2, are input into a device, and the power into the device is driven into the non-linear range, the two signal frequencies will mix, generating the two original (or “fundamental”) tones along with the sum and difference of the two fundamental frequencies. Further, this mixing with continue with the harmonics of the two input tones. At certain frequencies, namely 2f1-f2 and 2f2-f1, the intermodulation products will be close to the fundamental frequencies (f1 and f2), making them difficult to filter out. As higher-order harmonics and intermodulation products are developed, they tend to be lower in amplitude, thereby reducing their effect on overall signal quality.

5 dB SMT Fixed Slope Equalizer
DC - 12 GHz
|
|
EQY-5-123+ is a wideband, absorptive gain slope equalizer fabricated using a highly reliable and repeatable GaAs MMIC IPD process. Operating from DC to 12 GHz, this model achieves outstanding linear slope while maintaining excellent return loss throughout the entire band due to its absorptive design. This model is packaged in a compact 1.5x1.5 mm package, making it an ideal choice …
