Directional Coupler 2 To 50 GHz

As coaxial systems reach higher frequencies, it becomes critical to sample and level signals over broad instantaneous bandwidths. Krytar Model 102050010 is a 10-dB stripline directional coupler that uses a patented, nonuniform tapered line. The coupler is designed with offset coupled striplines used in a three layer construction, with coupled lines etched on opposite sides of a thin center board that is in turn sandwiched between two dielectric boards of equal thickness.
