VCO Test Methods
Well regulated power supplies are recommended for tuning and VCO supplies. Bias tee's in the DC and tuning voltage lines help reduce the power supply noise. This article will cover information on
An Introduction to Filters
In the operation of electronic systems and circuits, the basic function of a filter is to selectively pass, by frequency, desired signals and to suppress undesired signals. The amount of ...
An Introduction to Frequency Multipliers
Mini-Circuits' frequency multipliers offer a new degree of freedom in designing frequency multiplier chains. Their multi-octave band width and excellent rejection of fundamental and third ...
DAT-31R5A/31A/15R5A Series Evaluation Boards Operation to VDD=5.2V
Mini-Circuits DAT series of 50Ω digital step attenuators support a wide variety of configurations including attenuation range, step size and operating power supply voltages. Read further for more
Band-pass Filters with Linear Phase Response
Filters with linear phase response are desirable, due to their flat group delay, in many applications, for example in image processing and digital data transmission. Such filters maximally ...
DIY Low-Cost Power Splitters
There is a continuing demand to reduce the cost and increase the performance and quality at the same time. Mini-Circuits is working to satisfy these goals and has introduced a new splitter series
Super Wide-band RF Choke
Use of heterojunction bipolar transistor technology has resulted in development of super wide-band monolithic microwave amplifiers such as Mini-Circuits ERA series. These amplifiers cover a ...
High Power Limiter Modules
In many applications, front end filtering is used to protect the receiver from unwanted high-power signals, but even with this reinforcement, high-power signals may still be present. A limiter ...
Mini-Circuits 2 and 5W Attenuators Display Tight Tolerance in the Broad DC to 18 GHz Band
The need for cost effective, high performance components is greater than ever. Mini-Circuits is meeting that demand with the introduction of three families of low cost precision fixed attenuators.
