AEQ2199-T

Overview

The AEQ2199-T is a surface-mount gain equalizer from Knowles Dielectric Labs designed for signal conditioning applications. It operates across a frequency range of 0Hz to 16GHz, providing a nominal impedance of 43 Ohms and an internal capacitance of 1.15pF. This component is specifically engineered for military Electronic Warfare (EW) and Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) systems where precise amplitude response control is critical over a wide bandwidth.

Feature Summary

• Provides stable gain equalization across a broad frequency spectrum from DC to 16GHz
• Engineered for high-reliability military Electronic Warfare and ECM environments
• Utilizes a compact surface-mount package for efficient board integration

Applications

• Military Electronic Warfare (EW) systems
• Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) equipment
• Wideband RF signal conditioning circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates the tape-and-reel packaging configuration as distinct from bulk variants. Confirm that the 43-Ohm impedance specification aligns with your system's transmission line requirements. Ensure the 16GHz upper frequency limit meets your operational bandwidth needs without requiring additional filtering or compensation stages.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing wideband RF paths requiring flat amplitude response up to 16GHz. The 43-Ohm characteristic impedance suggests compatibility with non-standard or specific military interconnect systems. Consider the surface-mount form factor for automated assembly processes in high-volume defense electronics manufacturing.
