QCN-13D+

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Overview

The QCN-13D+ is a two-way 90-degree hybrid power splitter/combiner from Mini-Circuits, designed for RF applications between 675 MHz and 1.3 GHz. It features a bandwidth of 625 MHz with a nominal impedance of 50 Ohms. The component utilizes LTCC technology in an FV1206-1 surface-mount package. Key electrical specifications include a maximum insertion loss of 0.5 dB, minimum isolation of 16 dB, typical VSWR of 1.25, and maximum amplitude imbalance of 8 degrees.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Feature Summary

• Provides precise 90-degree phase splitting or combining capabilities across the specified frequency range
• Utilizes Low-Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) construction for reliable surface-mount integration
• Maintains high port-to-port isolation to minimize signal interference between channels

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Applications

• Quadrature mixer circuits requiring 90-degree phase shifts
• Single-sideband (SSB) modulator and demodulator designs
• Balanced amplifier configurations for improved linearity

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order suffix matches the required performance characteristics, as standard designations may vary. Confirm the package style corresponds to the FV1206-1 footprint requirements for your PCB layout. Ensure compatibility with SMD/SMT assembly processes. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to your manufacturing environment. Validate that the operating temperature range meets your system's thermal constraints.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 90-degree hybrid is needed within the 675 MHz to 1.3 GHz band. Consider the 0.5 dB insertion loss budget for signal integrity. Evaluate the 16 dB minimum isolation against your crosstalk requirements. The LTCC technology offers stability for mass production. Ensure the 50 Ohm impedance matches your system architecture to maintain optimal VSWR performance.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Part Context

This device belongs to the QCN series of signal conditioning components manufactured by Mini-Circuits. It serves as a fundamental building block in RF front-end architectures where phase relationship management is critical. The part is distinct from resistive splitters due to its reactive 90-degree phase shift characteristic. It complements other Mini-Circuits passive components in balanced circuit topologies.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify pinout and footprint compatibility before considering alternative manufacturers. Cross-reference electrical parameters such as isolation and phase balance to ensure functional equivalence in existing designs.
