Rodelco Introduces 0.5 To 18.0 GHz Amplifier Integrated Microwave Assembly


Ronkonkoma, NY -- Rodelco Electronics Corporation, a supplier of custom RF and microwave hardware for military and aerospace applications, announced the release of its Model 3703A integrated microwave assembly. The Model 3703A offers a unique combination of power, bandwidth, and harmonic suppression in a highly integrated microwave assembly.

The Model 3703A offers a minimum power output of 5 Watts CW over the frequency range of 0.5 to 18.0 GHz while suppressing harmonics to a level of -60 dBc minimum. The assembly employs a tandem connection of switches, medium power amplifiers, filters, and combining switches to achieve the broadband coverage. The implementation shown utilizes mechanical switches to achieve the maximum output power with a band switching speed of 10 milliseconds.

The Model 3703B is available with PIN diode switches and 1 microsecond switching speed, but maximum output power is limited to 1 Watt CW. These products were developed to meet flightline military requirements.
