GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADAR5001 is a 1-to-2 Wilkinson power splitter that is designed
for space-constrained microwave signal distribution applications.
Excess insertion loss ranges from −1.0 dB (from 10 GHz to 18
GHz) and −1.1 dB (from 18 GHz to 27 GHz). The two outputs are
matched in both phase and amplitude, making the ADAR5001 ideal
for signal distribution applications requiring low time skew between
channels. The ADAR5001 can also be used as a combiner, combining
input signals at the P1 and P2 ports to an output at the S1
port. The ADAR5001 is housed in a compact, 1.460 mm × 1.460
mm × 0.500 mm WLCSP, which makes it ideal for use in planar,
phased-array antenna systems that require a tight pitch between
elements.
The ADAR5001 is fabricated on a passive silicon process, and it is
specified to operate from −40°C to +85°C.
