PE1605

Overview

The Pasternack PE1605 is an SMA bias tee designed for signal conditioning applications. It operates within a frequency range of 400 MHz to 10 GHz. The component supports a maximum DC current rating of 200 mA and a voltage rating of 50 Volts DC. It utilizes SMA connectors for RF and DC port interfaces.

Feature Summary

• Integrates RF and DC paths into a single compact unit
• Supports high-frequency operation up to 10 GHz
• Rated for continuous DC current handling

Applications

• RF test and measurement setups requiring combined signal injection
• Biasing active components in microwave circuits
• Signal conditioning in communication systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender and pin configuration against the official datasheet before integration. Confirm that the operating environment remains within the specified 50 V DC and 200 mA limits to ensure device integrity. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by project specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact solution is needed to combine DC bias with RF signals in the 400 MHz to 10 GHz range. Ensure the system impedance matches the standard 50 Ohm requirement. Verify that the physical size constraints fit the assembly layout, as it is a standalone bulk component.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Pasternack signal conditioning category, specifically bias tees. It serves as a passive interconnect device enabling simultaneous transmission of DC power and RF signals through shared or separate ports without interference, typical for SMA-based RF infrastructure.

Replacement Considerations

No public substitute part numbers are documented.
