Switched Filter Banks
API Technologies Switched Filter Bank designs draw from a multi-disciplined staff with many years of experience in both microwave filters and control components. By combining filter and switch design expertise, API can provide integrated switched filter assemblies that not only reduce the overall mechanical footprint, but also offer improved electrical performance.
This improved performance is achieved by having the ability to align the filters to the switches, thus removing any of the associated mismatches between the two. The end product is an integrated assembly with:
Features & Benefits
• Improved VSWR
• Less passband variation
• Lower insertion loss
• Reduced component count
• Improved RF Shielding/Isolation
• Higher reliability
Suspended Substrate Switched Filter Banks for extremely low insertion loss requirements.
Switching speeds as low as 20 ns & isolation performance up to 80 dB.
Switch manifolds are channelized to obtain maximum channel-to-channel isolation.
We monitor critical phases of the production process with proprietary data logging technology.
We deliver designs that meet specifications and exceed your expectations.
Our switched Filter Banks include a blend of both standard and custom features.
In-house pick and place capabilities allow for lower costs and decreased lead times.
