CP0402A6000DLTR

RF Directional Couplers Overview

The CP0402A6000DLTR is a thin-film directional coupler manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, designed for RF applications. It operates within the 5.8GHz to 6.0GHz frequency range and supports a maximum power handling of 3W. The component utilizes a 0402 (1005 metric) surface-mount package with LGA termination. Key electrical specifications include an insertion loss of 0.25dB, isolation of -35dB, return loss of 23dB, and a coupling factor of 18dB. It is classified as a standard coupler type and is currently in active production status.

RF Directional Couplers Feature Summary

• Utilizes thin-film technology for precise signal coupling in compact form factors
• Features LGA termination for enhanced surface-mount reliability
• Provides high directivity for accurate forward and reverse power monitoring

RF Directional Couplers Applications

• RF signal monitoring systems
• Power measurement circuits
• Feedback control loops in wireless transmitters

RF Directional Couplers Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status carefully, as specific variants may differ from general family standards. Confirm that the LGA termination matches the target PCB footprint design. Ensure the operating frequency aligns strictly with the 5.8GHz to 6.0GHz specification to maintain performance integrity. Check for any recent product change notices affecting manufacturing origin or materials.

RF Directional Couplers Selection Notes

Select this component when a 0402 footprint is required for high-frequency RF coupling near 6GHz. The 18dB coupling factor suits applications requiring significant signal attenuation for monitoring purposes. Consider the 3W power rating against system thermal constraints. Verify impedance matching requirements against the standard 50-ohm system typical for this series.

RF Directional Couplers Part Context

This part belongs to the CP0402 series of thin-film directional couplers from KYOCERA AVX. The series offers various frequency options tailored for different wireless communication bands. The 'DLTR' suffix indicates the tape and reel packaging format suitable for automated assembly processes in high-volume manufacturing environments.

RF Directional Couplers Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other CP0402 series parts for alternative frequency coverage if operational bands differ. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameters before substituting with generic equivalents.
