S-band phase shifters deliver fast switching speed and low phase error
These phase shifters facilitate easy implementation in communication antennas, phased array radars, weather radars, and EW receivers. The S-band GaAs pHEMT 4-bit and 6-bit digital phase shifters meet the high performance requirements of communications and radar system manufacturers, optimizing for fast switching speed, low phase error, and serial or parallel control capability.
The 2.3 GHz to 3.8 GHz digital phase shifters maintain low phase error and low attenuation variation over the 360° range, and a built-in CMOS driver allows for serial or parallel control in a small form factor.
The MAPS-010144 is a 4-bit digital phase shifter housed in a 4-mm 24-lead PQFN package. It provides 360° phase shift range with a step size of 22.5°. It is controlled with a single +5.0 V serial or parallel control line. Its insertion loss is 2.5 dB, with a low ±0.5 dB attenuation variation and ±4.0° phase accuracy over the 2.3 GHz to 3.8 GHz frequency range.
The MAPS-010164 is a 6-bit digital phase shifter housed in a 4 mm 24-Lead PQFN package. It provides 360° phase shift range with a step size of 5.625°. It is controlled with a single +5.0 V serial or parallel control line. Its insertion loss is 3.2 dB, with a low ±0.6 dB attenuation variation and ±5.0° phase accuracy over the 2.3 GHz to 3.8 GHz frequency range.
