Characteristics and Applications
The Miniaturized Microstrip Circulator series finds applications in various fields where space constraints and specific assembly size requirements are crucial. These compact circulators are well-suited for integration into miniaturized communication systems, phased array antennas, portable radar systems, and compact RF/microwave modules. Additionally, they are utilized in emerging technologies such as wearable devices, IoT (Internet of Things) sensors, and miniaturized satellite communication systems, where their small form factor and high performance are essential for seamless integration and efficient operation.
Key Features & Advantages
- Ultra-Compact Size & Lightweight:Compared to traditional waveguide or stripline circulators, volume and weight are reduced by 50%–80%, with sizes as small as a few millimeters square, making them ideal for highly integrated modules such as T/ R modules and RFIC packages.
- High Isolation & Low Insertion Loss:High isolation(typically > 20 dB) prevents transmit signal leakage and protects sensitive receivers, while low insertion loss(<0.5 dB) ensures efficient transmission and a low system noise figure.
- Wide Operating Bandwidth:Supports customizable bandwidths from narrowband(3–5%) to broadband(up to an octave), meeting diverse system requirements.
- High Power Handling Capacity:Despite compact size, optimized thermal design and materials enable handling several to tens of watts average power, with peak power reaching kilowatt levels.
- Excellent Temperature Stability & Reliability:Temperature- compensated magnetic circuits or wide - temperature ferrites ensure stable performance from −40 °C to + 85 °C, while a robust structure provides strong resistance to vibration and shock for military and harsh environments.
- Surface-Mount Technology (SMT) Compatibility:Designed for surface mounting and automated pick- and - place, improving assembly efficiency and consistency while reducing production costs.
Typical Applications
- Radar Systems: Especially in T/R modules for phased array radars, used to share and isolate transmit and receive channels.
- 5G/6G Communication Infrastructure: RF units in Massive MIMO base stations for transmit/receive duplexing.
- Satellite Communication & Navigation: Airborne, shipborne, vehicle-mounted mobile terminals with stringent size and weight requirements.
- Test & Measurement Instruments: Spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers, etc., as core switching or isolation components.
- IoT Devices & Terminals: Drones, wearable devices, and other scenarios requiring compact RF front-ends.
- Military & Aerospace Electronics: Missile seekers, electronic warfare equipment, etc.
