PE82P5003

Overview

The PE82P5003 is an 8-bit programmable phase shifter manufactured by Pasternack. It operates within the frequency range of 32 GHz to 37 GHz. The device provides a total phase shift capability of 360 degrees. It features 256 distinct control steps for precise phase adjustment. This component is designed for high-frequency RF applications requiring digital phase control.

Feature Summary

• Digital TTL programmable interface for phase control
• Wideband operation across 32 GHz to 37 GHz
• High-resolution 256-step phase adjustment

Applications

• Phased array antenna systems
• Microwave communication links
• Test and measurement instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version from Pasternack Enterprises to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical specifications. Ensure that the system voltage levels match the TTL programming requirements. Confirm connector type and mechanical dimensions against the installation environment before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when precise digital phase control is required in the Ka-band spectrum. The 8-bit resolution offers fine granularity compared to lower-bit alternatives. Consider thermal management requirements as high-frequency components may generate heat during continuous operation at maximum power levels.

Part Context

This component belongs to Pasternack's series of digital phase shifters. It complements other models like PE82P5023 which operate at lower frequencies. The product line focuses on providing reliable phase shifting solutions for wireless and RF integrated circuits.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 8-bit programmable phase shifters from Pasternack with similar frequency ranges. Verify that alternative parts maintain the same 360-degree phase range and 256-step resolution to ensure system performance parity.
