TTM Technologies, Inc., a leading global manufacturer of technology solutions including mission systems, RF components and RF microwave/microelectronic assemblies and printed circuit boards, has announced the launch of its 5 mm x 3.2 mm X-Band 8 to 12 GHz 3 dB hybrid coupler and 20 dB directional coupler. These state-of-the-art components are designed to meet the demanding requirements of broadband use in medium power X-Band (8 to 12 GHz) commercial-off-the-shelf military and aerospace  applications.

The XMC0812F1-20G and XMC0812F1-03G couplers are high-performance directional and hybrid couplers designed for critical applications such as power and frequency detection, voltage standing wave ratio monitoring, and power splitting & combining. Both feature a peak to average ratio of 12 dB, have a power rating of 50 W average power (AVG) and are in an easy-to-use, ultra-small 5 mm x 3.2 mm, surface-mount package. The electroless nickel immersion gold finish ensures long-term reliability in harsh environments. These couplers have undergone rigorous qualification testing, adhering to the stringent standards of the Xinger® product line.

The XMC0812F1-20G and XMC0812F1-03G couplers are available for sampling now through ttm.com. They will be available for purchase later this summer.

The radio frequency and specialty components business unit of TTM designs, manufactures, and sells custom high frequency solutions and Xinger® brand standard components for wireless infrastructure, defense electronics and test and measurement electronics markets.
