SMT Isolators and Circulators

Surface Mount Technology, SMT Isolators and Circulator are suitable for pick and place and reflow soldering. Devices have been produced in a variety of frequencies from L to X-band for applications which include communications, commercial avionics and large AESA programs using Surface Mount Technology (SMT).

Features & Benefits

The C-band Radalt SMT Isolator opposite has been supplied for over 15 years and is used in a radar altimeter used in more than 50% of the world’s commercial air transport fleet.

This table lists the basic information for a range of typical designs. Electrical specification is dependent on several factors including operating bandwidth, temperature and RF peak power. Please contact the factory for performance data.
