CP0603A1960ANTR

RF Directional Couplers Overview

The CP0603A1960ANTR is an RF directional coupler manufactured by KYOCERA AVX, designed for signal conditioning applications. It operates within a frequency range centered around 1960 MHz and utilizes a 50 Ohm impedance system. The component is housed in a compact 0603 (1608 metric) surface-mount package with LGA termination style. It supports board mounting and functions as a thin film directional coupler. The device is rated for a maximum power handling capacity of 3W. Standard factory packaging consists of reels containing 3,000 units per roll.

RF Directional Couplers Feature Summary

RF Directional Couplers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ANTR' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm exact electrical tolerances and pinout definitions. Ensure compatibility with RoHS regulations if required by the target market, as some variants in this series may have different compliance statuses. Confirm that the 3W power rating aligns with the peak power requirements of the intended application circuit to prevent component failure.

RF Directional Couplers Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 1960 MHz center frequency is required for directional coupling tasks. Consider the 0603 package size for PCB layout constraints and verify that the 50 Ohm system impedance matches the surrounding RF trace design. Evaluate the thermal management capabilities relative to the 3W maximum power rating during continuous operation to ensure long-term reliability in the final assembly.

RF Directional Couplers Part Context

This part belongs to the CP0603 series of high-directivity thin film directional couplers produced by KYOCERA AVX. The series offers various frequency-specific models tailored for different RF bands while maintaining consistent physical dimensions and termination styles. These components are engineered for integration into modern electronic devices requiring efficient signal sampling and isolation without significant insertion loss or power degradation.

RF Directional Couplers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other CP0603 series models with matching 1960 MHz specifications, such as CP0603A1960BLTR or CP0603A1960CLTR, provided their electrical parameters meet the design requirements. Cross-reference with KYOCERA AVX documentation to ensure equivalent coupling coefficients and isolation levels before substitution.
