Overview
The ARD12012C is a coaxial switch manufactured by Panasonic Industry, designed for high-frequency applications up to 18 GHz. It features a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) contact configuration with two positions and operates on a 12 VDC coil voltage. The component utilizes quick connect end types and maintains a 50 Ohm impedance. Key electrical specifications include a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) of 1.5, an insertion loss of 0.5 dB, and isolation of 60 dB. The device is non-illuminated and belongs to the ARD series.
Feature Summary
- Supports high-frequency operation up to 18 GHz with 50 Ohm impedance
- Provides SPDT switching capability with two distinct positions
- Ensures high signal isolation of 60 dB and low insertion loss
Applications
- RF cellular communication systems
- High-reliability electronic circuits requiring coaxial switching
- Test and measurement equipment operating at microwave frequencies
Procurement Notes
Verify part authenticity through official Panasonic Industry channels or authorized distributors. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with suppliers, as availability may vary. Ensure the quick connect termination type matches your board design requirements before ordering.
Selection Notes
Select this component when designing circuits requiring reliable RF switching at frequencies up to 18 GHz. Consider the 12 VDC coil voltage requirement and the physical space needed for quick connect terminals. Evaluate the VSWR and insertion loss parameters against system signal integrity needs.
Part Context
This part belongs to the ARD series of coaxial switches from Panasonic Electric Works. The series is characterized by high sensitivity and robust performance in RF environments. The ARD12012C specifically addresses the need for SPDT functionality in compact, high-frequency applications.
Replacement Considerations
Consult official Panasonic Industry documentation for verified substitute part numbers within the ARD series or equivalent models from other manufacturers that meet the 18 GHz, SPDT, and 50 Ohm specifications.
