RF equalizers shape amplitude response across frequency to help compensate for frequency-dependent variation in a signal chain. Match the required response to the model’s documented attenuation characteristic, operating range and impedance. Include the surrounding amplifier or cable response when requesting a recommendation.
Provide the required frequency response, insertion loss or attenuation, impedance and RF power level. RFComp can review these requirements against available model specifications.
Specify operating and storage temperatures, vibration, sealing and other environmental requirements. Confirm each rating in the selected model’s datasheet; do not assume every model supports extreme conditions.
Provide connector type, package dimensions, mounting constraints and any space or weight limits. Confirm the mechanical drawing and interface requirements before ordering.
Match the equalizer’s attenuation response to the frequency-dependent variation in your system. Compare frequency range, allowable insertion loss, impedance, power rating and package dimensions. Include the equalizer loss in your signal-chain budget.
An equalizer shapes amplitude response across frequency to compensate for variation elsewhere in a signal chain. Its attenuation characteristic must be matched to the amplifier, cable or system response.
A passive equalizer shapes the response by adding frequency-dependent attenuation; it does not provide power gain. Include its insertion loss in the system gain and noise budget.
Provide the frequency range, measured or target amplitude response, allowable insertion loss, impedance, power level, package requirements and quantity.
