Control software included download here
All devices are controlled and powered via USB 2.0 with driverless installation, so no external power supply is required.
The programmable attenuators and SPDT switches require the software download which must be installed and run on any windows computer in order to control the device.
Our USB-controlled components are controlled and powered by a convenient USB 2.0 port with driverless installation, meaning no external power supply is required. The attenuators and PIN diode switches require an easy-to-use downloadable software program which interfaces with any Windows computer. The amplifiers, switches and attenuators cover extremely wide frequency bands up to 40 GHz. The modules are 50 Ohm hybrid MIC designs that do not require any external matching components.
The USB controlled amplifiers offer typical performance of 12 dB gain, 10 dBm P1dB, a 4.5 dB noise figure and operate over a 50 MHz to 18 GHz band or 50 MHz to 40 GHz band. The attenuators offer typical performance of 30 dB attenuation, 5 to 8 dB of insertion loss, a 1 dB step size and are available in two programmable models that cover 100 MHz to 18 GHz and 100 MHz to 40 GHz. Lastly, the SPDT switches offer typical performance 3 to 5 dB of insertion loss, 65 to 70 dB isolation, a 6 µsec switching speed and are available in two models that cover 500 MHz to 18 GHz and 500 MHz to 40 GHz. All models operate over a broad temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and depending on the frequency, are available with either female SMA or 2.92mm connectors.
