QCC-20+

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Overview

The QCC-20+ is a surface mount RF power splitter/combiner from Mini-Circuits, designed for 90-degree hybrid applications. It operates within a frequency range of 1200 MHz to 2200 MHz with a nominal impedance of 50 ohms. The component features low insertion loss, typically 0.4 dB, and high isolation, typically 25 dB. Constructed using LTCC technology, it ensures excellent temperature stability in a compact 8-SMD package measuring 0.15 inches by 0.15 inches.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when ordering, as variations may exist within the product line. Confirm that the required operating frequency aligns with the 1200 MHz to 2200 MHz specification. Ensure compatibility with standard SMD reflow processes given the small form factor. Check datasheet revisions for any updates to electrical parameters or mechanical dimensions before finalizing design integration.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring precise 90-degree phase splitting or combining in the UHF to L-band spectrum. The LTCC material choice makes it suitable for environments demanding stable performance across temperature variations. Consider the physical size constraints, as the 0.15-inch square package fits dense PCB layouts. Evaluate insertion loss requirements against the typical 0.4 dB value to ensure signal integrity meets system specifications.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Part Context

This part belongs to Mini-Circuits' QCC series of hybrid power splitters. These components are engineered for high-reliability RF applications where consistent phase and amplitude balance are critical. The series utilizes advanced ceramic manufacturing techniques to achieve superior performance compared to traditional microstrip designs, offering better consistency and environmental robustness.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Replacement Considerations

The QCC-20 serves as a direct predecessor without the plus suffix. Verify if the non-plus version meets all current electrical requirements, particularly regarding isolation and insertion loss tolerances. No other cross-model substitutes are confirmed in public documentation.
