Mini-Circuits AD3PS-1+

Mini-Circuits AD3PS-1+ Environmental and export classification status description

The AD3PS-1+ is a compact power splitter/combiner designed to split a high-power input signal into three equal power output signals, or combine three input signals into one output signal with low insertion loss and excellent amplitude/phase balance. Functions: - Power Splitter: Splits a single input signal into three equal power output signals. - Power Combiner: Combines three input signals into a single output signal with low insertion loss. Applications: The AD3PS-1+ can be used in various RF and wireless applications, including: 1. Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) 2. RF signal distribution networks 3. Test and measurement setups 4. Wireless communication systems 5. Signal routing and switching applications Alternative Parts: If the AD3PS-1+ is not readily available or suitable for a specific application, some alternative power splitter/combiner options from Mini-Circuits include: - ZAPD-21+: 2-way 0° power splitter/combiner - AD2PS-1+: 2-way 0° power splitter/combiner Embedded Modules: The AD3PS-1+ is a standalone module and does not have any embedded modules or integrated functionalities. Here are 3-5 related Q&A: 1. Q: Can the Mini-Circuits AD3PS-1+ be used for both splitting and combining signals? A: Yes, the AD3PS-1+ functions as both a power splitter and a power combiner. It can be used for splitting a single signal into three outputs or combining three input signals into one output. 2. Q: What is the typical insertion loss of the AD3PS-1+? A: The typical insertion loss of the AD3PS-1+ is around 0.8 dB for both the splitter and combiner modes. 3. Q: Is the AD3PS-1+ suitable for high-power applications? A: Yes, the AD3PS-1+ is designed to handle high-power signals, making it suitable for applications that require power splitting or combining of high-power RF signals. 4. Q: What is the frequency range of the AD3PS-1+? A: The AD3PS-1+ operates within a frequency range of DC to 7000 MHz, making it suitable for a wide range of RF and wireless applications. 5. Q: Are there any special considerations for the AD3PS-1+ in terms of installation or setup? A: The AD3PS-1+ is a passive device and does not require any external power supply. Ensure proper connectors and impedance matching for optimal performance in your specific setup.
