RFMW announces availability of discrete devices from Microwave Technology (MwT). The MwT-9F GaAs MESFET delivers 26.5 dBm P1dB at 12 GHz and is ideally suited to applications requiring high-gain and medium linear power in the 500 MHz to 26 GHz frequency range. Small signal gain is 11 dB. Offered in a 485 x 315 micron chip, the MwT-9F can be used in military and hi-rel SWaP designs and is also available in multiple packaged configurations, all with MTBF values better than 1×108 hours at 150 degrees C channel temperature. |

RFMW announces design and sales support for a Southwest Antennas’ passive hemispherical antenna. The 1027-035 rugged, high-performance Iridium and GPS L1 antenna supports Iridium transmission and reception for worldwide voice and data communication along with receive only L1 GPS position and timing services. Key features include a quadrifilar helical antenna design, excellent axial ratio, compact size, and light weight for Iridium or GPS receivers, manpack radios, hand-held tactical radio systems, and other small form factor radios in unmanned systems, autonomous vehicles, and other automated or remote assets where antenna size needs to be minimized. IP67 rated, the 1027-035 features a recessed TNC(m) Non-Rotating RF connector. |

RFMW announces design and sales support for a Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) mixer from Qorvo. The QPX0003D, 30 to 40 GHz I/Q Mixer can be configured as an image reject mixer, a single sideband upconverter, or a QPSK modulator/demodulator. Provided as DIE, the device utilizes two double balanced mixer cells and a 90⁰ hybrid on the LO port. An external 90⁰ hybrid on the IF port is required to complete the image rejection or sideband suppression. The QPX0003D is a much smaller alternative to higher cost hybrid I/Q mixers and single sideband upconverter assemblies. LO/RF isolation is > 30 dB with IF frequency range of DC to 5 GHz. |

RFMW announces design and sales support for Ultra-wideband (UWB) antennas from Sangshin Elecom. The KSCA-UWBS86A linear polarized, UWB chip antenna is designed to offer high efficiency in channels 1 through 7 (3,200 to 7,200 MHz) making it ideal for end-use products targeting markets in the United States, Europe and parts of Asia. With a small form factor of only 8 x 6 mm, the device achieves 6 dB of gain in channel 4 (4,000 MHz) while covering a wide range of the most common UWB channels. The KSCA-UWBS54A is a complementary solution operating across channels 5 to 8 (6 to 8 GHz) and offering 5.5 dB peak gain. |
