RF Power Dividers/Splitters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm tape-and-reel packaging specifications. Ensure that the ordering part number matches the exact electrical parameters required for the target application, as suffixes may indicate variations in packaging or processing not detailed in general summaries.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, broadband solution is needed for frequencies between 11 GHz and 13 GHz. Consider the 0.5 dB insertion loss and 18 dB isolation limits to ensure they meet system performance requirements. Verify thermal stability needs against the +125°C maximum operating temperature rating.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Part Context

This part belongs to the family of high-frequency Wilkinson power dividers from Knowles Dielectric Labs. These devices utilize low-loss, high-dielectric-constant materials to achieve small form factors and temperature stability. They are engineered for integration into SMT and chip-wire hybrid assemblies where signal integrity and board space are critical constraints.
