Hello, Welcome to Dasenic

The Mini-Circuits® TCD-12-222X+ is a directional coupler designed for RF and wireless applications. It operates in the frequency range of 1 to 2000 MHz and provides signal coupling in one direction while isolating the output port in the opposite direction. Functions: 1. Signal Coupling: Allows a portion of the input signal to be coupled to the output port. 2. Signal Isolation: Provides high isolation between the input and output ports in the reverse direction. 3. Power Handling: Handles RF power levels up to a certain limit without significant degradation. Applications: 1. RF Test and Measurement 2. Signal Monitoring and Sampling 3. Power Detection and Control 4. Antenna Matching and Optimization Alternative Components: 1. Mini-Circuits® ZFDC-20-5-S+: Wideband directional coupler with a frequency range of 20 to 3000 MHz. 2. Anaren® Xinger®-III: Multi-layer ceramic directional coupler for higher frequency ranges. 3. Johanson Technology® 5R01-01G: Miniature integrated directional coupler for compact applications. Embedded Modules: 1. Mini-Circuits® USB-TC Series: USB-controlled test and measurement modules for RF signal analysis. 2. Analog Devices® ADL5330: Programmable RF attenuator with embedded control interface. 3. Qorvo® QPA2705: Integrated RF power amplifier with embedded biasing and control features. Related Q&A: 1.
