MADU-FR1012

True Time Delay, 1 Bit 4 - 12 GHz

The MADU-FR1012 is a GaAs MMIC 1-bit True Time Delay operating from 4 GHz up to 12 GHz packaged in a 7 mm plastic QFN. The application of True Time Delay instead of phase shifter offers an enhanced broadband bandwidth with less beam squinting effects. It uses an optimum switched line to obtain very low delay error and insertion loss variation. The die is manufactured using 0.18 μm gate length pHEMT technology. The MMIC uses gold bond pads and backside metallization. This technology has been evaluated for Space applications and is on the European Preferred Parts List of the European Space Agency.
