ZC16PD-K0644+

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Overview

The ZC16PD-K0644+ is a super wideband 16-way 0° power splitter/combiner manufactured by Mini-Circuits. It provides operational coverage from 6 to 40 GHz with a 50 Ohm impedance. Key electrical specifications include an insertion loss of 2.2 dB and isolation of 26 dB. The component utilizes 2.92mm connectors and supports DC pass functionality.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Feature Summary

• Super wideband operation across the 6 to 40 GHz frequency range
• 16-way signal splitting and combining capability with 0° phase alignment
• High isolation performance for effective signal separation
• DC pass functionality integrated into the RF path

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Applications

• Multi-channel test and measurement setups requiring wideband signal distribution
• Phased array antenna systems needing precise 0° phase coherence
• Broadband communication infrastructure testing environments

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required connector type and impedance specifications. Confirm that the 2.92mm interface aligns with existing system cabling requirements. Ensure the operating frequency range covers the intended application spectrum without exceeding the 40 GHz upper limit. Check for any environmental rating requirements if used in non-standard conditions.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-port-count solution is required for ultra-wideband applications. The 16-way configuration offers significant channel expansion compared to lower-split models. Consider the 2.92mm connector size for compatibility with high-frequency interconnects. Evaluate the insertion loss impact on system noise figure if cascading multiple stages.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Part Context

This part belongs to Mini-Circuits' ZC16PD series of coaxial power splitters. It shares design similarities with other models like the ZC8PD-K0644+, differing primarily in the number of output ports. The series focuses on providing reliable, wideband signal division for demanding RF environments.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Replacement Considerations

The ZC16PD-K1844+ is a documented alternative within the same product family. Verify if the specific connector or impedance variations between these part numbers meet the current system requirements before substitution.
