Microstrip Circulators

Product Features

• Compact Design: Utilizes planar microstrip technology for a small size and lightweight, making it easy to integrate into high-density circuit boards.
• Broadband Performance: Capable of operating over a wide frequency range to meet the multi-band needs of modern communication systems.
• Low Insertion Loss: Ensures minimal energy loss of the signal during transmission, thereby improving system efficiency.
• High Isolation: Provides excellent isolation between ports, effectively preventing signal reflections and crosstalk.
• Low VSWR: Features good impedance matching characteristics, reducing signal reflections and ensuring signal integrity.
• Feasibility for Mass Production: The mature microstrip process is suitable for large-scale mass production, with relatively low costs.
• Easy SMT Integration: Many microstrip circulators are designed in a Surface Mount Technology (SMT) package, facilitating integration into automated production lines.

Applications

• Wireless Communication Systems: Used in devices like cellular base stations, WLAN, and WiMAX to separate and protect transmit and receive signals.
• Radar Systems: Serves as a core component for signal routing in miniaturized radar and phased array radar modules.
• Satellite Communications: Used for signal isolation and path selection in ground stations and on-board satellite equipment.
• Electronic Warfare: Applied in various electronic countermeasures systems for signal management and protection.
• Test and Measurement Equipment: Acts as a key component in laboratories and on production lines for signal isolation and routing.
• RF Front-End Modules: A crucial passive component in many RF transceiver modules.
