A High-Performance GaAs Alternative to SOI Switches

Although Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) MMIC switches can achieve fast switching, wide bandwidth and high frequency and power, most come at high cost. GaAs MMIC switch designs achieve comparable performance at considerably lower cost with distinct advantages. Read why Mini-Circuits’ GaAs MMIC technology switches afford a compelling alternative to comparable SOI models.

A Novel Solution for Board Design Compatibility with High-Rejection LTCC Filters

Mini-Circuits’ BFHK-series of ultra-high stopband rejection LTCC filters accelerates the drive towards RF/microwave circuit miniaturization while completely redefining performance levels achievable by LTCC filters. The BFHK-series of filters now achieves stopband rejections in excess of 90 dB in a surface mount LTCC component consuming just a fraction of the footprint area of even high-k dielectric based planar solutions.
