Gain Equalizers

The Big Deal

• Excellent Return Loss, 20dB typ.

• Wide bandwidth, DC - 20 GHz

• Small Size, 2 mm x 2 mm

Product Overview

EQY-XX-24+ Series of absorptive Gain Equalizers are fabricated using highly repetitive GaAs IPD* MMIC

process incorporating resistors, capacitors and inductors having negative insertion loss slope. EQYs are

available with nominal attenuation slope of 0,2,3,5,6,8,10,12 dB. They are packaged in tiny 2 x 2 mm

Feature

Advantages

Negative Insertion Loss Slope vs.

Frequency

Useful for compesating negative gain slope of amplifiers, receivers, transmitters to

achieve flat gain versus frequency.

Wide range of values

0,2,3,5,6,8,10,12 dB

Enables circuit designer to change nominal insertion loss values without mother-

board redesign making the EQY-XX-24+ Series ideal for select at test application.

Wideband operation, DC to 20 GHz

Supports a wide array of applications including wireless cellular, microwave communi-

cations, satellite, defense and aerospace, medical broadband and optic applications.

Excellent Power Handling Capability

Enables its use at the output of a variety of amplfiers

Small Size and simple to use

(2 mm x 2 mm)

As a single chip solution, the EQY-XX-24+ Series occupies less board space than

a lumped element approach, minimizes component count and ensures repeatable

performance over wide frequency range.
