Microstrip RF circulator – 5.2 to 39.25 GHz, up to 20 W | JQL Electronics / Dorado
JQL microstrip RF circulators from 5.2 to 39.25 GHz with different isolation, insertion loss, VSWR and power ratings for RF and microwave applications.
The JQL Technologies microstrip RF circulators are passive non-reciprocal RF and microwave components designed for directional signal routing between multiple ports. The product family includes configurations from 5.2 to 39.25 GHz, covering microwave through millimeter-wave frequency ranges.
The range includes JCS, JC2S, JCSM and JCSC configurations with model-dependent isolation, insertion loss, VSWR and average power. In addition to single-circulator configurations, the range includes dual-circulator versions with path-dependent transmission and isolation characteristics.
Advantages
- Wide frequency coverage: listed configurations from 5.2 to 39.25 GHz.
- Single and dual configurations: different architectures for directional RF signal routing.
- Low insertion loss: model-dependent configurations with low transmission loss.
- High isolation: different isolation levels according to frequency band and circulator architecture.
- Multiple power ratings: listed models with average power ratings up to 20 W.
- Custom design: JQL provides custom configurations according to type, frequency band, insertion loss, rejection and isolation requirements.
