SP1T RF Pin Diode Switches To 18 GHz
Pulsar Microwave manufactures pin diode RF switches that are controlled by TTL logic. This configuration is known as single pole, single throw and is often abbreviated SPST or SP1T. They have been engineered to function in 50-ohm systems, and are designed to operate from 40 MHz to 18 GHz. They have a switching time of 100 nanoseconds and input power rating of 200 mW (23 dBm). Performance of 1.6:1 or better VSWR and minimum isolation of 60 dB is typical of most models.All switches of this type require both +5VDC and -5VDC to operate. Typical current consumption is +/- 30 mA. TTL control logic of 0 to +5VDC is required. Units comes standard with SMA connectors.

SP5T RF Pin Diode Switches To 12 GHz
Pulsar Microwave's 5-way RF switches cover bands from 300 MHz to 12 GHz in both absorptive and reflective configuration. These SP5T switches have a rating of 200 mW maximum input power and a switching time of 100 ns. They are specified with a minimum isolation of 60 dB and most models maintain a VSWR of 1.6:1 or better on all ports. The SP5T switches are driven by TTL logic control circuitry and require both positive and negative 5-volt supplies for operation. A 9-pin D-SUB connector provides the interface for the power and logic voltages.

Voltage Controlled Linearized Attenuators To 16 GHz
Pulsar's voltage controlled, PIN diode linearized attenuators are available from 0.25-16 GHz with attenuation ranges of 32 and 64 dB. Each model includes an integrated linearizer, and a driver that controls the attenuation level. This design results in transient free switching between attenuation levels as opposed to the spurious outputs that result when an attenuation value is switched either on or off by a direct digitally controlled attenuator. Transfer function is 8 dB / Volt.

SP6T RF Pin Diode Switches To 12 GHz
The SP6T series of 6-way absorptive and reflective switches manufactured by Pulsar Microwave cover applications from 300 MHz to 12 GHz. They have an isolation of 60 decibels and most models specify 1.6:1 or better return loss throughout frequency band. These 6-way switches require a +/- 5VDC supply to operate. Switching control uses individual 0-5V TTL control logic. Voltage and logic control interfaces into a system using a 9-pin D-SUB connector installed.

Single Sideband IQ Modulators To 16 GHz
Single Sideband Modulators incorporate a 90° hybrid, 2-way 0° divider and two mixers to produce either an upper (RF + IF) or lower (RF - IF) sideband when driven by a carrier signal and modulation input signal. Depending on the phase relationship of the signals injected into the MOD.I and MOD.Q ports, the modulator will pass either the upper or lower sideband through to the output while rejecting the other.
