DHC1722

RF Circulators And Isolators Overview

The DHC1722 is an active RF circulator manufactured by DiTom Microwave, designed for operation within the 17.3 GHz to 22 GHz frequency range. It features SMA-FEMALE connectors and a module package configuration. The component supports an average forward power of 10 W with a minimum isolation of 20 dB and a VSWR of 1.25.

RF Circulators And Isolators Feature Summary

• Provides directional signal routing in microwave systems
• Ensures high isolation between ports to minimize interference
• Supports robust functionality with SMA connector interfaces

RF Circulators And Isolators Applications

• Microwave communication systems
• Radar transceiver modules
• Test and measurement equipment

RF Circulators And Isolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., -2, -3, -4) against project requirements, as variations may exist regarding qualification standards or connector configurations. Confirm RoHS compliance status and MSL level during sourcing. Ensure SMA-FEMALE interface compatibility with existing PCB layouts before finalizing procurement orders.

RF Circulators And Isolators Selection Notes

Select this component when operating frequencies fall strictly between 17.3 GHz and 22 GHz. Consider the 10 W average power limit for thermal management. Evaluate the 20 dB minimum isolation requirement against system noise floor needs. Verify that the SMA-FEMALE connector type matches the design schematic constraints.

RF Circulators And Isolators Part Context

This part belongs to the DiTom Microwave DHC series of RF circulators. It shares the general module form factor and SMA interface style with other models in the family but differs significantly in frequency range and power handling capabilities compared to lower-frequency variants like the D3C series.

RF Circulators And Isolators Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching the 17.3-22 GHz band, 10 W power rating, and SMA-FEMALE connector specifications.
