Product highlights at the TDK Booth at IMS will include:
RF Components for Sub - 6 GHz 5G Applications
With the increase of new bands and applications expected for 5G technology, TDK has developed new RF components for Sub 6 GHz 5G applications. Some of these new n77, n78 and n79 bands are located in the 3.3 GHz to 5 GHz spectrum and require new component solutions. TDK has developed baluns, couplers, diplexers and filtering solutions for the new bands, in both LTCC and thin film versions. These new components can be used for applications ranging from NB IoT FEMs to base stations.
Circulators/Isolators for Infrastructure Application
TDK has a wide portfolio of circulators and isolators for use in cellular bands. New circulators and isolators are currently being developed with the newest items for use in the 3.5 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The circulators and isolators are available in a wide range of sizes to support variations in outputs, band frequencies, shape, terminal structure and power levels from 2.5 W to 150 W. Their main applications include base stations, repeaters, small cell and power amplifier systems.
New Auto-Grade RF Components
TDK is adding a new AEC-Q200 series of RF components, ZDE Series, which will provide high performance and reliability for safety critical applications and extreme operating environments.
