GENERAL INFORMATION
An analog phase shifter continuously changes the phase of a
microwave signal by varying a D.C. voltage. Since the D.C. voltage
applied to the diode is a reverse bias, the current drain is negligible
(typically less than 10 microamps). A balanced stripline configuration
keeps the VSWR and amplitude ripple to a minimum for all values of
phase.
GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
Frequency Coverage: 0.1 to 18.0 GHz
RF impedance: 50 OHMS.
D.C. Voltage: 0 volts to +28 volts (standard), or 0 volts
to 28 volts (optional) will vary the phase
of any of the models over the minimum
phase shift listed
RF Power: 10 mW peak or CW, operating. Destruct
level is 1 W, CW, 100 W peak.
Temperature Information: The units can be used over a 55C to
+85C temperature range. However, the
phase will change either 5 or 5%,
whichever is greater. If temperature com-
pensation is required, this can be done on
request. With compensation, the variation
can be held to 1 or 1%, whichever is
greater, from 55C to +85C. The size
remains the same. If compensation is
desired, add a suffix T to the model num-
ber (e.g., PQ-17T).
Switching Speed: Series PQ phase shifters can be driven
from any phase value to any other value
in 10 nanoseconds. With linearizers, the
response time is 50 nanoseconds. With
temperature compensation the response
time is 100 nanoseconds.
Connectors: SMA
Notes:
1. LINEARIZATION: For phase shifters with linearizers add a suffix L
to the model number (e.g., PQ-23L). Linearity is 2.0 for phase
shifters for 150 or less, and 4 for phase shifters between 150
and 360. With linearization, DC voltages of 15V at 30mA are
required. The control voltage is 010 volts. A control voltage of 05
volts can be supplied at no additional cost, by adding a suffix 5 to
the model number (e.g. PQ-23L5). Linearity is measured at f
c
.
2. PHASE FLATNESS: The phase shift varies with frequency at any
voltage setting. This variation, referenced to 0 at 0 volts for each
frequency, is approximately 15% for octave models, 10% for
models with 25% bandwidth, and 7.5% for models with a 10%
bandwidth.
3. A connector, (SMA Female) is available in place of the bias pin at
no extra charge. This will be placed at the center of the surface
marked F on the drawing. This is the 0.38
A surface. If a SMA
Female is desired, add suffix C to the model number (e.g., PQ-
23C).
4. Monotonicity guaranteed for all models.
