Hello all you fine Engineers. I am looking for an SMC male (Panel Mount) to SMB plug about 1.5 inches long to mate with an thru hole SMB jack or could be MCX type to SMC. Anything small and works to 3.5 GHz. The distance between the two PCBs and the SMC panel mount are critical in my...
Hey Biff,
Thanks for the info on the Hitite amps. We have already built the boards using the ERA-3 amps. As I stated before, I think the PCB has problems as the resulting response of the RF path is ugly. I jumped an unpopulated board and swept the thing. UGLY!!! Either the board house did not...
Maybe a bit moreinfo would be helpful. Freq range is 500 to 3000 Mc. I started looking at the the PCB with all the components removed and signal path jumped. The loss and flatness is not too bad. Had about 4Db from In to Out after normalizing my test cables. I am now installing one part at a...
Hey all you smarter than me RF people! I am assisting in the developement of broadband circuitry and keep insisting on building discrete RF amplifier/ attenuator modules that can be attached to a main circuit board. We are having some problems with our current configuration consisting of the...
