PE70A9035

Overview

The PE70A9035 is a negative slope equalizer manufactured by Pasternack, designed for signal conditioning applications. It operates within a frequency range of 12 GHz to 18 GHz and provides a fixed equalizing value of 3 dB. The component exhibits an insertion loss of 0.9 dB and supports a maximum input power (Pin) of 150 mW. It utilizes SMA connectors for interface connectivity.

Feature Summary

• Provides negative slope signal equalization
• Fixed 3 dB equalizing value
• Low insertion loss design

Applications

• Signal conditioning in RF systems
• Compensation for cable or component loss variations
• Test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version and connector gender compatibility before procurement. Confirm that the operating environment remains within the specified 12-18 GHz frequency range and that input power does not exceed 150 mW to ensure device integrity. Check regional availability as distribution may be restricted in certain areas.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed negative slope correction is required between 12 GHz and 18 GHz. Ensure the system impedance matches the standard requirements for SMA interfaces. Consider the 0.9 dB insertion loss impact on overall link budget during system design.

Part Context

This part belongs to Pasternack's RF signal conditioning series, specifically focusing on equalizers. It addresses signal degradation issues in high-frequency microwave applications where amplitude response compensation is necessary across the specified bandwidth.

Replacement Considerations
