ZC2PD-02263-S+

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Overview

The ZC2PD-02263-S+ is a super wideband 2-way DC pass power splitter/combiner from Mini-Circuits, operating within a frequency range of 2000 to 26500 MHz. Designed for 50-ohm systems, this component provides balanced signal distribution with high isolation and low amplitude imbalance. Key electrical specifications include a minimum isolation of 18 dB, maximum phase imbalance of 3 degrees, and a maximum VSWR of 1.5. The device supports DC passing capabilities with a current rating of up to 530 mA, making it suitable for applications requiring simultaneous RF and DC signal transmission across its extensive bandwidth.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Feature Summary

• Super wideband operation covering 2 to 26.5 GHz
• DC pass capability supporting up to 530 mA
• Low amplitude unbalance for nearly equal output signals
• High isolation and minimal phase imbalance

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Applications

• Parallel path system architectures
• Multichannel communication systems
• Wideband signal distribution networks

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix against official Mini-Circuits documentation to ensure correct performance characteristics. Confirm that the required DC current capacity does not exceed the specified 530 mA limit for your application. Cross-reference the frequency range requirements with the 2000 to 26500 MHz specification to ensure compatibility. Ensure proper handling procedures are followed due to the sensitive RF nature of the component.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Selection Notes

Select this component when a wideband 2-way split is required between 2 and 26.5 GHz. It is ideal for systems needing DC biasing through the splitter without additional coupling components. Consider the physical dimensions of 45.47mm x 26.42mm x 12.70mm for integration into existing layouts. Evaluate the 18 dB isolation and 1.5 VSWR limits against system interference and impedance matching requirements.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Part Context

This model belongs to Mini-Circuits' ZC2PD series of 2-way power splitters. It shares design principles with other wideband variants like the ZC2PD-01263-S+, differing primarily in frequency coverage. The UU2623 case style indicates a specific mechanical form factor used by Mini-Circuits for these surface-mount or leadless packages. It complements higher-way splitters such as the ZC8PD-02263-S+ for more complex distribution needs.

RF Power Dividers/Splitters Replacement Considerations

The ZC2PD-01263-S+ is a related variant within the same product family, offering similar functionality but potentially different frequency ranges. Verify if the lower frequency coverage of alternative models meets the specific application requirements before substitution.
