HIGH POWER ATTENUATORS
High power RF Attenuator packages are available in brazed construction. These high power attenuator devices are PI or TEE pad attenuators designed from .5 to 30 dB attenuation values with excellent flatness and VSWR. Please click on PRODUCTS to find out more.
ADVANTAGES OF USING BRAZed PRODUCTS
Brazed ConstructionRFT uses a high temperature brazing process ( over 800 degree C) that yields the lowest possible thermal resistance and allows for higher temperature operation. Higher temperature processing also ensures greater reliability and overall performance during thermal cycling. The device will withstand substantial forces applied to the lead due to different rates of contraction and expansion of the lead during temperature variations. Since RFT devices are brazed, the customer need not have to worry about leads coming off during soldering operations.
High Reliability
RFT brazed devices are utilized in demanding environments. They are used in many military and commercial programs requiring the most stringent performance standards.
Power Dissipation
RFT brazed devices dissipate more watts per square inch than any others on the market. RFT can supply devices with up to 500 watts power handling capability for frequency ranges from DC to 6 GHz. RFT brazed devices can handle more RF power than a soldered device.
Power Deration
RFT brazed devices offer a significant advantage over the competition in power handling capability due to superior power derating capability. Brazed devices are power derated to flange temperatures up to 250 degree C. This high temperature capability provides the user with improved system reliability and a wider margin of performance under abnormal operating conditions. RFT devices are also capable of withstanding much higher temperature for short period of time without damage.
