RF Directional Couplers Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compliance status as specific listings indicate non-compliance. Confirm lead times with authorized distributors due to potential supply variability. Ensure ordering suffixes match exact specifications. Validate datasheet revisions before final design approval. Check availability constraints for reel quantities.

RF Directional Couplers Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1960 MHz center frequency is required for directional coupling. Consider the 3W power handling limit against system requirements. Evaluate the 0603 package size against board space constraints. Compare directivity specifications against other models in the CP0603 series for optimal signal fidelity.

RF Directional Couplers Part Context

This part belongs to the CP0603 series of high-directivity thin film directional couplers from KYOCERA AVX. The series covers frequencies from 155 MHz to 6000 MHz with various power ratings. The B1960 designation specifically targets the 1960 MHz band, distinguishing it from other frequency variants like the A0960 or B3550 models.

RF Directional Couplers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other CP0603 series models with matching 1960 MHz frequency and similar power ratings. Verify pinout compatibility and impedance matching for seamless integration. Consult manufacturer cross-reference guides for approved alternative part numbers.
