Voltage Controlled Oscillator
The CVCO55CC-0787-0805 VCO operates from 787 to 805 MHz with a control voltage range of 0.3 ~ 4.7V. It features a typical phase noise of -122 dBc/Hz @ 10 KHz offset, has excellent linearity, and comes in the industry standard 0.5 x 0.5" SMD package.

GPS L1 Ceramic Filter
DR-1575/50 is a ceramic filter that covers the GPS L1 frequency of 1575.42 MHz. The filter exhibits less than 3.5 dB of insertion loss across the passband of 1550 to 1600 MHz while providing greater than 50 dB of rejection at 1475 and 1675 MHz.

Sub-Miniature VCO
The SMV2165A-LF in S band (2118 to 2218 MHz) is a sub-miniature VCO featuring typical ultra low phase noise of -90 dBc/Hz @ 10 kHz offset. The design has a tuning sensitivity of 148 MHz/V (typ) and provides an output power of 6 +/-3 dBm.

Receiver Frontend
Model RFE-218-70-BB is a 2.0 to 18.0 GHz direction finding receiver frontend. The minimum dynamic range of the subsystem is -60 to +5 dBm while the input VSWR in frequency range is 3.0:1 and the frequency flatness at the outputs is +/-3.0 dB maximum.

SP32T Switch with Decoder
This port to port phase matched SP32T switch, model MSN-32DT-05-DEC-MP with options 100M20, PM10, operates within the 100 MHz to 20 GHz frequency range. It has an amplitude balance of +/-1.2 dB maximum, and is phase matched to +/-10º maximum.

Oscilloscope
The Infiniium 9000A Series 13-GHz oscilloscopes have been approved by the PCI-SIG (PCI Special Interest Group) for PCI Express® 2.0 electrical signal quality testing. This approval means designers can use the DSO/DSA91304A Infiniium oscilloscope to test and validate their designs that will meet PCIe physical layer specifications.

C-Band CRO
Model CRO5700Z in C band (5690 to 5719 MHz) uses a doubler inside and features ultra low phase noise performance of -106 dBc/Hz @ 10 kHz offset. It is ideally suited for digital radio applications that require ultra low phase noise performance.

M8 to M12 Connector Adapter
The Series 765 automation connectors now has a M8 to M12 connector adapter, which allows the connection between M12 and M8 cordsets. The small IP67-rated adapter has a M8 male cable connector and a M12 female cable connector.

Directional Couplers
These miniature air dielectric directional couplers are rugged lightweight devices that offer lower insertion loss than comparable stripline units. The simplified construction allows for greater flexibility in creating customized configurations.

LFTS Synthesizer Series
The LFTS Series of low phase noise synthesizers offer state-of-the-art high resolution frequency sources for INTELSAT applications. It comes with standard 100 Hz step sizes and provides an additional output that may be used as the second conversion LO for dual conversion up and downconverters.

Ultra Broadband Bias Tee
Model BT-10M18 is a bias tee that is designed to operate from 10 MHz to 20 GHz. The insertion loss is 1.5 dB maximum at 20 GHz, 20 dB of isolation from 10 to 300 MHz and 30 dB from 300 MHz to 20 GHz with a VSWR of 2.0:1 maximum.

Transfer Switches
The TA/TD Series of transfer switches features SMA connectors and a frequency range of DC to 18 GHz. The TAE/TDE Series also features SMA connectors and a frequency range of DC to 26.5 GHz. Both are available with failsafe, latching self cut-off, or pulse latching functions.

DIGITAL REQUIREMENTS
All ads should be submitted as PDF/X-1A files (pressready files). Please read below for specifications. Detailed instructions for creating this type of file will be available on our FTP site. We can still accept other file formats but because we print digitally, your files will ultimately be converted into PDF/X-1a. Submitting PDF/X-1a compliant files will yield better, more reliable results.

PROOFS
All four-color ads must provide a four-color proof for inking and registry guides.
