RF Directional Couplers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ASE' if required, as it may denote a distinct variant or packaging configuration compared to the base model. Confirm RoHS compliance status, as some related series in this family are noted as non-compliant. Ensure the ordering quantity aligns with the manufacturer's standard reel size of 5,000 units. Cross-reference the datasheet for any specific handling instructions associated with the thin film technology.

RF Directional Couplers Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 0402 form factor is required for 2.4 GHz ISM band applications. The 18 dB coupling value suits monitoring tasks where significant signal attenuation is acceptable. Compare insertion loss and isolation metrics against system requirements to ensure signal integrity is maintained. Consider the 3 W power rating for high-power transmission paths.
