It provides excellent coupling flatness over a broad bandwidth and good return loss. This coupler also provides a quadrature phase shift between the signal at the through port and coupler port. Manufacturing using GaAs Technology, this model results in relatively high repeatablility in performance. KEY FEATURES Feature Advantages Wideband, 6-26.5 GHz EDC10-273+ can be used in many applications, saving component count. Also ideal for wideband applications such as military and instrumentation. Excellent coupling flatness Excellent coupling flatness yields higher accuracy. Small size, 4x4 MCLP package. Tiny footprint saves space in dense layouts while providing low inductance, repeatable transitions, and excellent thermal contact to the PCB. REV.
