SMA connector system interchanges transition pins
Article Abstract:
Micro Lambda Distributors Inc. of Clarksburg, NJ, has developed the new three-millimeter SMA connector system, which is positioned as a solution for usual problems experienced with coaxial connections. The SMA connector system offers benefits such as improved system-design flexibility, ease of testing, reliability, rapid signal-level trimming and simple field repairs. RF performance can be reduced and connector systems can be destroyed by problems, such as bent pins, excessive torque levels and misaligned connector interfaces.

MMIC amplifier powers 38-GHz links
Article Abstract:
Tri-Quint Semiconductor Ic of Hillsboro, OR, has introduced the TGA1-71- EPU monolithic microwave integrated circuit power amplifier. The two-stage amplifier is based on a 0.25-um pseudomorphic-high-electron mobility- transistor (PHMET) device technology, and consists of a two 300-um input PHEMTs driving two 400-um output devices. The product provides more than 150-mW (+22-dBm) output power at 1-dB compression with a typical small- signal gain of 15dB from 36 to 40 GhZ.
