RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for Southwest Antennas’ “cloverleaf” configuration of omni antennas. Dubbed ‘Turbo Cloverleaf’, these antennas are 3x smaller than existing solutions yet maintain similar antenna gain, efficiency and excellent radiation pattern control over the entire operational frequency band. Model 1032-021 is a right hand circular polarized (RHCP) Omni cloverleaf antenna with 1.98 – 2.2 GHz frequency band coverage and 1.2 dBi gain. Model 1032-022 is a left hand circular polarized (LHCP) antenna. Both models from Southwest Antennas offer 40 dB of isolation between two co-located antennas with opposite CP polarizations, which is a significant improvement…

The Qorvo RFMD2080 can generate output frequencies of between 45MHz and 2700MHz, making it suitable for a wide range of applications such as satellite communications, QPSK/QAM modulators, SSB modulators and Software Defined Radios (SDR). The RFMD2080’s fractional-N synthesizer offers very low spurious levels with typical step size of 1.5Hz. Typical noise floor is -150dBm/Hz. Programable via serial interface, P1dB is 4dBm and the device runs from a 3-3.3V supply consuming 155mA. Qorvo offers this I/Q modulator…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for a voltage variable attenuator (VVA) for instrumentation, radar, communications and EW platforms in the 2-31GHz frequency range. The Qorvo TGL2767-SM features a 20dB attenuation range with < 2dB of insertion loss. I/O return loss is >12dB. The TGL2767-SM is available in a 3x3mm SMT package or in DIE form as the TGL2767.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for body worn antennas from Southwest Antennas. Model 1065-031 is a right-hand, circularly polarized (RHCP) antenna while model 1065-032 offers left-hand polarization (LHCP). Developed to offer high performance, rugged antenna options, the antenna radome housing is resistant to damage from drops, being stepped or jumped on, and other potential abuse. Both 1065-031 and 1065-032 antennas are designed for use with handheld or body worn MIMO / MANET radio systems operating from 1350 to 1390MHz. Circular polarization offers performance enhancements in multi-antenna radio configurations, crowded RF / non line-of-sight scenarios, and improved performance in…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for a high linearity MMIC power doubler designed to support DOCSIS 3.1 CATV requirements.
