Dear reader,

This week I am including 5 new Mini-Circuits products, a special focus on new wideband 1 watt amplifiers for high frequency test applications, as well a new article for you to discover. I hope you will enjoy the read and look forward to be of further assistance to you.

As always, please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.

Important announcement:

Please note that Mini-Circuits will be closed from December 24th, 2021 to January 2rd, 2022.

MCDI will remain open during Mini-Circuits' holiday break. For all your remaining 2021 ordering needs, please make sure to submit them as soon as possible to ensure they are shipped on time. For any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

NEW ARTICLE

Novel MMIC Splitter/Combiner Designs Achieve High Isolation Down to DC

Categories: Power Splitters/RF Power Combiners

Traditionally, DC power splitter / combiner circuits are implemented with resistors. A simple resistive power splitter / combiner circuit schematic is shown in Figure 1. If Z0 = 50W, and ports 2 and 3 are terminated in 50W, then port 1 is matched to 50W as well, so Z0 / 3 = 16.7W. Resistive power splitter / combiner circuits typically have poor isolation between ports at DC and over frequency.
