In addition to promoting its vast portfolio of high-performance RF & microwave components, AVX is demonstrating circuit protection devices for RF & high-speed digital circuits, as well as demonstrating & sampling a ham radio dummy load kit
AVX Corporation, a leading manufacturer and supplier of passive components and interconnect solutions, is showcasing its vast portfolio of high-performance RF and microwave solutions at this year’s IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS 2017), which is taking place this week, June 4 – 9, in Honolulu.
Exhibiting at Booths 1212 and 1311, AVX Fellow, Ron Demcko, Thin Film Marketing Director, Leonid Talalaevsky, and Worldwide Business Manager for RF/Microwave Ceramics and MLO, Edgardo Menendez, are introducing attendees to products including: high-power resistors, attenuators, terminations, and capacitors, wire bond resistors, and high-performance low-pass, band-pass, and high-pass thin film and multilayer organic (MLO) filters. Frequency capabilities for the portfolio extend from the kilohertz range to 100GHz and power capabilities extend up to hundreds of watts, enabling employment in a variety of commercial, consumer, automotive, industrial, medical, telecommunications, optical, space, and military applications with environmental conditions ranging from harsh to benign.
AVX personnel are also demonstrating circuit protection devices for RF and high-speed digital circuits at the booth, as well as a ham radio dummy load kit containing two high-power, 50Ω, 25, 60, 75, or 100W terminations and one solder panel/chassis mount connector with an SO239 jack and PL259 plug. A limited number of complimentary dummy load kits are available for ham radio enthusiasts, and will be provided along with a brochure containing specifications for the termination parameters, mounting and assembly tips, and information about how to optimize heat flow across the terminations’ hot side to create a substrate.
“Although we’re perhaps best known for our capacitors, inductors, and filters, AVX offers a wide variety of state-of-the-art resistors, terminators, attenuators, diplexers, triplexers, equalizers, couplers, and power dividers all designed to provide peak performance in RF and microwave applications across a multitude of markets. So, we’re excited for the opportunity to demonstrate some of these products and their capabilities at IMS this week,” said Ron Demcko, AVX Fellow.
