RFMW announces design and sales support for high power ceramic filters from Sangshin. The Sangshin MBP86RC3550S500B is a small form factor ceramic filter for the n78 Band. With high power capability designed for peak-to-average power requirements of LTE signals, the filter supports 3.5 GHz band, 5G deployments (n78). C-band 5G is the most commonly tested and deployed 5G frequency, popular due to its global availability and the need for operators to identify large blocks of contiguous spectrum in order to operate wider channel widths. With low passband insertion loss (1 dB) and 0.5 dB ripple, the MBP86RC3550S500B is rated…
RFMW announces design and sales support for P1dB SMA connectors. The P1dB P1CO-SAFE-P030-G068 is an edge mount, SMA female connector for 0.068 inch thick printed circuit boards. With verified performance to 18 GHz, the connector body material is gold plated brass. The center contact pin is 0.031 inch diameter and the overall connector length is 0.559 inch (14.2 mm). The P1CO-SAFE-P030-G068 has been tested and accepted by major semiconductor manufacturers for use on their product evaluation boards where performance and quality are critical
RFMW announces design and sales support for a high gain MMIC amplifier. The Qorvo QPL7442 is a single-ended gain block matched to 50 ohms. Spanning 50 to 4000 MHz, the QPL7442 offers 20 dB of flat gain with 20 dBm output power (P1dB) while drawing only 85 mA from a 5V supply.
