Chip Scale Package MMIC DC-40 GHz 20dB Equalizer: MEQ20-40CSP1

The MEQ20-40CSP1 is a high-performance passive MMIC equalizer designed for advanced RF and high-speed digital applications.
Encased in a compact 1.5 mm CSP1 chip-scale surface-mount package, it provides positive slope equalization across a broad frequency range from DC to 40 GHz, with a DC attenuation of 20 dB and a return loss of 23 dB. Its miniature form factor enables extreme miniaturization of the SMT footprint while remaining compatible with standard solder reflow assembly processes, making it ideal for space- and weight-sensitive designs. Engineered for systems that prioritize SWAP (size, weight, and power) efficiency, the MEQ20-40CSP1 compensates for frequency-dependent losses and enhances gain flatness across broadband signal chains, ensuring reliable signal integrity. Typical applications include mitigating high-frequency amplifier gain roll-off, equalizing filter passbands, and improving the eye diagram in high-speed digital systems, supporting consistent and high-fidelity signal transmission. By integrating precise frequency compensation into a small, easily mountable package, the MEQ20-40CSP1 reduces system complexity while maintaining manufacturability and performance. Its combination of broadband operation, superior return loss, and compact footprint makes it a versatile solution for engineers seeking to optimize RF signal quality in compact, high-performance circuits. Whether applied in communications, radar, or test equipment, the MEQ20-40CSP1 provides reliable, reproducible equalization that helps maintain signal integrity across demanding broadband environments.
