KRYTAR, a leader in the design and production of ultra-broadband microwave components and test equipment, has announced a new directional coupler operating in the wideband frequency range from 0.5 to 20 GHz (L- through K-Bands) offering nominal coupling of 30 dB in a compact package. This coupler offers the ultimate solution for emerging designs and test and measurement applications including mmWave, 5G, radar and satellite communications (SATCOM).
KRYTAR’s new directional coupler, Model 152030, offers superior performance ratings including nominal coupling (with respect to output) of 30 dB, 1.80 dB and frequency sensitivity of ±1.8 dB. The directional coupler exhibits insertion loss (including coupled power) of less than 2.8 dB, directivity of >10 dB, and maximum VSWR is 1.35 at any port. It can handle an input power of 20 W (average and 3 kW (peak).
The directional coupler comes with industry-standard SMA-female connectors. This compact package measures just 4.49 inches (L) x 0.53 inches (W) x 0.71 inches (H), and weighs only 3.1 ounces. This coupler has an operating temperature range from -54°C to +85°C.
