RF Circulators And Isolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current documentation to ensure correct connector type and pinout configuration. Confirm that the required power handling and frequency range align with system requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

RF Circulators And Isolators Selection Notes

Select this component when a circulator is required for the 3.7-4.2 GHz band with SMA interfaces. Ensure the system can accommodate the 20 W average power limit and that the 23 dB isolation meets the noise floor requirements of the application design.

RF Circulators And Isolators Part Context

This part belongs to the D4 series of RF circulators from DiTom Microwave. It is distinct from isolator variants such as the D4I3742-1, which serve different directional filtering functions despite similar frequency ranges. The product line focuses on connectorized passive components for aerospace and defense sectors.
