TP-75-SMA

Overview

The TP-75-SMA is an RF balun manufactured by MACOM Technology Solutions, designed for broad frequency coverage ranging from 2MHz to 200MHz. This component supports applications in VHF, UHF, and lower microwave bands. It features a maximum insertion loss of 0.25dB, ensuring efficient signal transmission with minimal power dissipation. The device utilizes SMA connectors for interface compatibility and is categorized under wide-band transformers within the RF and wireless product line.

Feature Summary

• Provides broad frequency coverage suitable for VHF, UHF, and lower microwave band operations
• Features low maximum insertion loss of 0.25dB for efficient signal conversion
• Utilizes SMA connector interfaces for standard integration

Applications

• VHF band signal processing
• UHF band signal processing
• Lower microwave band applications

Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status directly with authorized distributors or the manufacturer, as supply conditions may vary. Confirm technical specifications against the latest official datasheet to ensure compliance with design requirements. Check for any specific ordering suffixes or packaging variations that may affect procurement logistics and lead times.

Selection Notes

Select the TP-75-SMA when wideband operation between 2MHz and 200MHz is required. Consider its low insertion loss characteristic for high-efficiency signal paths. Ensure SMA connector compatibility with existing system interfaces. Validate performance needs against VHF, UHF, and lower microwave application constraints before finalizing the component choice.

Part Context

This component belongs to MACOM's portfolio of RF baluns and signal conditioning devices. It serves as a wide-band transformer solution, distinct from discrete amplifiers like the A75 series or other signal dividers such as the DS-308-SMA. The TP-75-SMA specifically addresses balance-to-unbalance conversion needs across a significant frequency spectrum.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Consult official MACOM resources or authorized distributors for potential alternatives or cross-reference options based on specific electrical and mechanical requirements.
