STRIPLINE SURFACE MOUNT KEY FEATURES FUNCTIONAL DIAGRAM • High power handling, up to 180W APPLICATIONS • Power amplifiers • Antenna feeds • Mobile satellite communication • Digital communication applications PRODUCT OVERVIEW Mini-Circuits' BDCH-20-63+ is a high-power bi-directional coupler providing high power handling up to 180W and mainline loss of 0.15 dB. Covering frequencies from 2000 to 6000 MHz, the model supports a wide variety of applications from power amplifiers and antenna feeds to various digital communications and more. High directivity of 19 dB provides accurate sampling from the coupled port, and 20 dB return loss provides excellent matching over full frequency range. The coupler is designed into an open printed laminate (0.56" x 0.20" x 0.051") with wrap-around terminations for good solderability and easy visual inspection. 1. Tested on Evaluation Board TB-864+. De-embedded to the device reference plane. 2. Model is symmetrical and all ports are interchangeable, see Port Function Description/Configuration table for details and S-Parameters for actual performance. 3. Does not include theoretical loss due to coupling. Nominal theoretical loss is 0.05 dB. 4. Thermal Resistance is defined as, example (®jc= (Hot Spot Temperature on DUT - Base Plate Temperature)/Input Power) ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS5 Operating Case Temperature6 5. Permanent damage may occur if any of these limits are exceeded. 6. Case temperature is defined as temperature on base plate. www.minicircuits.com P.O.
