V-Band Bandstop Filter
Exceed Microwave’s BSF-W-00208 is a WR19 bandstop filter that provides >15 dB rejection across a very narrow bandwidth of 50.2 to 50.4 GHz. The filter passes 46 to 49.9 GHz and 50.69 to 53 GHz. Both sides of the passband have low insertion loss of 0.2 dB typical with 0.6 dB at the band edges and a minimum 15 dB return loss.

0.3-50 GHz Ultra-Wideband 2-Way Power Divider/Combiner
MIcable 0.3 to 50 GHz ultra-wideband 2-way power divider/combiner can accept and divide a 0.3 to 50 GHz signal into two output signals with equal amplitude unbalance (±0.5 dB maximum) and phase unbalance (±7 degrees maximum). Due to extremely wide bandwidth, excellent VSWR (1.6:1 maximum), insertion loss (5.8 dB maximum) and isolation (16 dB minimum). It can be widely applied in 5G, test & measurement, instruments and other wideband applications.

MMIC Attenuators
Mini-Circuits’ BAT-series GaAs MMIC attenuators provide fixed attenuation with low loss from DC to 60 GHz. They handle 2 W power while fitting tiny six-lead QFN-style surface-mount packages measuring just 0.059 × 0.059 in. (1.50 × 1.50 mm). Ideal for electronic warfare, radar and satellite communications applications, these passive 50 Ω devices exhibit 20 dB typical input return loss over the full bandwidth. They are available in a wide range of fixed attenuation values, including 0, 5, 15 and 30 dB.
