New Ultra-Wide Band Hybrid Power Modules (HPM) Combine Multiple Technologies For Exceptional Performance.
Our new line of wide band, hybrid power amplifier modules (HPMs) cover the 4 to 18 GHz frequency range; and are the result of combining Microelectronic technology with the latest developments in thin film substrates. These hybrid modules require a single DC voltage source and are 50 ohm cascadable building blocks with output powers up to 5 watts. Catalog or custom designs are available. Applications requiring higher output levels and higher gain can be achieved by cascading and/or combining individual gain blocks. The modules are hermetically sealed. They pass fine and gross leak military requirements with their RF input/output connectors being field replaceable.
The six new hybrid power modules provide:
- linear output power
- ultra-compact hermetic enclosures
- excellent input and output VSWR
- excellent gain and flatness
- low noise figure
- low intermodulation distortion
- low spurious signals
- 100% load tolerance
These characteristics make the HPMs ideal for many RF applications that require linearity, power, small footprint and wide bandwidth.
