PXI Triple SPDT RF Switch MCX 75 Ohm
40-830-103
Switch Module
The 40-830 is a 75 RF Switch available with 3 or 6 separate SPDT relays in a single PXI slot. Both versions have been designed to exhibit low insertion loss and VSWR through the use of modern RF relay technology at an affordable cost. The switch banks have been carefully designed to ensure excellent and repeatable RF characteristics to frequencies of 3GHz with each path having a nominally equal insertion loss. The design of the 40-830 minimizes the injection of noise and unwanted signals into the signal path by careful attention to the mechanical and electrical design.

PXI-2545, 2.7 GHz, 50 Ω, Terminated 4x1 PXI RF Multiplexer Switch Module
778572-45
Multiplexer Module
2.7 GHz, 50 Ω, Terminated 4x1 PXI RF Multiplexer Switch Module—The PXI‑2545 is an RF signal multiplexer switch module. The internal termination of the PXI‑2545, which helps prevent high-power reflections that arise from open channels on the module, makes it ideal for use in RF applications where such reflections can damage the source. The module also provides excellent insertion loss, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), and isolation parameters to minimize signal degradation. You can use the onboard relay count tracking feature to predict relay lifetime and reduce unexpected system downtime.

Full Band Phase Shifters
STP-18-10-M2
-
Full band phase shifters are micrometer-driven, waveguide-based phase shifters. The configuration of the micrometer-driven phase shifters is similar to that of level setting attenuators, where the phase shifting is caused by an E-plane dielectric insert in the rectangular waveguide. The amount of phase shifting is directly dependent on the volume of the insert. The VSWR and the insertion loss of these phase shifters are dependent on the frequency. The below standard offering covers the frequency range of 18 to 110 GHz and a phase shifting range of 180 degrees. These micrometer-driven phase shifters are typically used to introduce a certain amount of phase shifting when the absolute number is not a focus.

Broadband Detectors
-
These waveguide bandwidth detectors use silicon beam lead diodes on a planar stripline circuit to obtain an extremely rugged and compact device. Most millimeter wave broadband detectors have very poor VSWR due to the difficulty in obtaining a good wideband impedance match to the diode. To overcome this problem, these detectors utilize two diodes and an internal matched termination and 3 dB hybrid as shown below. This circuit allows a VSWR of 2.0 or better over a full waveguide bandwidth for most of these detectors. Detectors for waveguides WR-8 and smaller use a single zero bias GaAs diode. The high sensitivity zero bias GaAs diodes can also be special ordered for use at lower frequencies when highest sensitivity is required.
