MMPX-00002PSM: Passive MMIC DC-18 GHz Quadplexer

The MMPX-00002PSM is a MMIC surface-mount quadplexer capable of multiplexing DC-6 GHz/8-10 GHz/12-14 GHz/16-18 GHz signals. Passive GaAs MMIC technology facilitates production of smaller filter constructions that replace larger form factor circuit board constructions. Tight fabrication tolerances allow for less unit-to-unit variation than traditional filter technologies, creating highly accurate simulations using the provided SnP files taken from measured production units. The MMPX-00002PSM is available as a 6x6 mm QFN. Available now.
