RF Directional Couplers Procurement Notes

Verify part number accuracy against official MACOM documentation before ordering. Confirm that the FP-2 package meets mechanical requirements. Ensure thermal management aligns with derating curves specified in the datasheet. Check for MIL-STD-202 screening availability if required by application standards. Validate frequency range compatibility with system specifications.

RF Directional Couplers Selection Notes

Select this component when a quadrature hybrid coupler is needed for the 175MHz to 350MHz band. Consider the 4W power limit and 0.5dB insertion loss for system budget calculations. The FP-2 package size should fit the design constraints. Verify hermetic sealing requirements against environmental conditions. Compare performance metrics with alternative couplers if broader bandwidth or different phase accuracy is needed.

RF Directional Couplers Part Context

This device belongs to the JH series of quadrature hybrids from MACOM. It shares functional similarities with other models in the family but differs in specific frequency ranges and power ratings. The JH-136 variant is optimized for UHF bands, distinguishing it from lower or higher frequency counterparts like the JH-133.
