New waveguide mixers detectors and couplers provide a wide dynamic range

Update: April 18, 2023

Fairview Microwave has released a versatile choice of waveguide mixers, detectors and couplers. They handle many applications, including 6G, 5G, research and development, test and measurement, electronic defence and more.

The new couplers enclose waveguide sizes varying from WR-28 to WR-229. The integrated connectorised designs comprise 2.92mm female, SMA and N-type connectors and coupling values from 20dB to 50dB.

The waveguide detectors include a frequency range from 26.5GHz to 110GHz. They are engineered with a wide dynamic range from -55dBm to +10dBm, maximum input power of +17dBm, and high levels of video sensitivity varying from 750mV/mW to 1500mV/mW.

The company’s new waveguide mixers provide a low conversion loss of 8dB to 12dB with a +13dBm LO drive. Also, they cover broadband frequencies varying from 26.5GHz to 110GHz and LO-RF at 28dB typical.

“Our customers will enjoy years of usefulness and best-in-class lead times with these new waveguide products. They ship from our ISO 9001:2015-certified facility and feature rugged designs constructed from the highest quality materials to stand up to years of use,” said Tim Galla, product line manager.
