Teledyne Microwave Solutions has developed an innovative low cost custom packaging solution utilizing Teledyne Labtech's established microwave printed circuit board techniques and the use of low cost organic materials for single chip and MCM (multichip module) applications. Markets served include defense, aerospace, and telecommunications. TMS' cavity package demonstrates excellent high frequency, thermal and electrical characteristics. 

Teledyne Labtech, a business unit of Teledyne Microwave Solutions, is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of complex and high technology demanding microwave printed circuit boards with an established pedigree spanning more than 25 years. Providing specialist solutions for a range of markets including Defense, Aerospace, High-end Telecom, Satcom and Test Instrumentation, TMS offers a wide range of complementary microwave PCB capabilities.

Teledyne Microwave Solutions is a worldwide leader in the design, development, and manufacture of RF and microwave components. Our broad line of components operate in the 100 kHz to 26 GHz range and include attenuators, BAW devices, detectors, isolators and circulators, linearizers, mixers, and VCOs. For over 50 years our components have played key roles in sophisticated airborne and satellite communications equipment, navigation and guidance systems, and more.

Teledyne Microwave Solutions (TMS) has been making filters since 1974 serving the microwave industry with miniature microwave filters utilizing unique lumped element design techniques. Products include cavity filters, coaxial resonator filters, combline filters, integrated filter assemblies, interdigital filters, lumped element filters, suspended substrate filters, waveguide filters and more.

Teledyne Microwave Solutions' Ka-band TWTA offers superior RF performance for the satellite uplink data communications market. In addition to its 502 W peak power, the amplifier features an integrated linearizer providing 175 W linear power at the output flange. Frequency ranges from 27.5 to 30.0 GHz for Commercial, or 30.0 to 31.0 GHz to accommodate military applications.

TMS has built a strong portfolio of SSPAs covering 1 MHz to 110 GH and pulsed and CW power 1 W to 10 kW. TMS SSPAs are used in all markets, from commercial Satcom to military and space qualified platforms. TMS uses LDMOS, GaAs, InP and GaN technologies to meet customer's needs, generally producing custom designs to customer specifications. GaN is particularly successful in pulsed applications, with many different amplifier designs available up to 18 GHz.

Our range of low noise amplifiers (LNAs) cover a wide range of applications but are primarily suited to communication systems including both data-link and satellite communications (Satcom) systems. In recent years, LNA's have moved more and more into TMS's sweet spot, primarily due to the increase in operating frequency. For example, our new K-Band LNA operates over a 19.2 to 21.2 GHz with 1.3 dB noise figure at 25°C. It's configured with a waveguide input and 2.92 output connector all in a hermetic package.

Amplifiers specific to the communications systems include a wide range of solid state power amplifiers (SSPAs) and low noise amplifiers (LNAs) originally from Paradise Datacom and a range organically developed product within TMS. Satcom SSPAs are considered a core competence of Paradise Datacom's product line who have invested heavily in converting it's complete amplifier offering from GaAs to GaN from C-Band all the way to Ka-Band.

Gain Shape amplifiers are used in a number of applications where it's necessary to flatten the gain characteristic of the preceding or following component. This would include flattening the attenuation of a long cable run or perhaps changing the input gain response to a MPM (Microwave Power Module) or TWT (Traveling Wave Tube) to compensate for the gain variation within the tube.

Teledyne Microwave Solutions (TMS) offer a range of Limiting Amplifiers which are used in instantaneous frequency and phase measurement receivers. The most important performance requirement of a limiting amplifier is to minimize output power variations, and provide a constant output over a wide input dynamic range.

Teledyne Microwave Solutions (TMS) has extensive experience in the design and manufacture of detector log video amplifiers (DLVAs). These devices are used extensively in applications requiring an output voltage related to the power of a received RF signal. In order to cope with a wide range of input signals a log amplifier is used to provide a linear voltage output per dBm of input power.
