TRAK offers a compact X-Band 15W TNC to pin SSPA isolator designed for space applications.
This ultra compact X-band 15W TNC to pin SSPA isolator features TRAK’s unique solid TNC (f) interface with a Diamond RF termination and operates over 8.0 to 8.4 GHz.
With a mass of only 56g, this magnetically screened isolator is designed to be as compact as practically achievable with minimal mass and footprint.
The solid interface on this isolator has substantial heritage from L to C-Band in TNC form in both male and female forms and is available in either Gold or Nickel plated.
A key feature of this TNC to pin isolator load is the termination. TRAK uses the superb family of 50Ω Diamond RF terminations from EMC Technology whitch enables superior Rf performance and power handling in a compact form factor. The termination in used in conjunction with an integral Oxygen Free Copper heat sink providing optimum thermal management and operation at elevated base plate temperatures under nominal or fault conditions.
