FMBT1627

Overview

The FMBT1627 is a broadband bias tee manufactured by Fairview Microwave, designed for RF applications spanning 10 MHz to 6 GHz. It features SMA connectors with a DC pin interface for bias injection. The component is rated for 2.5 Amps and 100 Volts DC. Key electrical specifications include a typical insertion loss of 0.5 dB, isolation of 50 dB, and a VSWR of 1.2:1.

Feature Summary

• Integrates RF signal path with DC bias injection via a dedicated pin
• Supports high current loads up to 2.5 Amps at 100 Volts
• Maintains low insertion loss and high isolation across the frequency range

Applications

• Biasing active RF components in test and measurement setups
• Integration into broadband RF circuits requiring simultaneous signal and power delivery
• General purpose RF system prototyping

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender configuration and DC pin orientation against project requirements before ordering. Confirm that the 100 Volt and 2.5 Amp ratings align with the intended DC bias conditions. Ensure SMA mating compatibility with existing cabling infrastructure to maintain signal integrity within the specified frequency range.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide bandwidth from 10 MHz to 6 GHz is required alongside substantial DC current handling capabilities. The low VSWR and high isolation make it suitable for sensitive RF environments. Consider the SMA interface standard and physical form factor relative to available space in the assembly.

Part Context

This model belongs to the Fairview Microwave RF Adapter Tee category, specifically engineered as a broadband bias tee.
