Accelerated tuning speeds packed in a small, lightweight filter with maximum performance. 


IMF2

Overview

Product Name : IMF™ Series

The Integrated Microwave Filter or IMF™ Series introduces accelerated tuning speeds packed in a very small, lightweight filter, providing maximum sensitivity and improved system performance for cleansing your ESM environment.

Our propriety designs designs produce the highest levels of performance. Including: Phase Noise: -145 dBc/Hz @ 10 kHz offset; Pin: +30dBm (10%BW); IIP3: +35 dBm min. +40 dBm typ.; Insertion Loss: 3.4 dB avg. for 10% BW; Selectivity: 20 dBc @ fc ± 10% (4% BW); +5V @ 20 μA Typical DC Power or +3.3V @ 2 mA typical. The highly customizable design allows you to select the best performance for your specific requirements.

Designed for the military radar market, specifically Active Electronically Steered Arrays (AESA) Radars and Phased Array Radars but compliment a broad range of applications such as; Commercial, Tactical & Military Communications, RF Front Ends (RFFE’s), SATCOM-on-the-move (SOTM), along with Electronic Warfare & Radar applications.

CUSTOM DESIGN

Product Name : S-Ku IMF® Series

The S-Ku band Integrated Microwave Filter IMF® series was designed for optimal size, DC consumption, selectivity and linearity. The center frequency step size varies per range but is typically 250MHz +/- 50 MHz. The S-Ku IMF® requires a +5V supply. The supply voltage should be adequately filtered as noise present on this pin will influence the RF signal purity.

Digital Interface
The digital interface can be selected on the fly to be either serial or GPIO. Please consult the demo control procedure (Document#1486860) for details. Note that serial data is +2.5V logic

IMF™ demo loaner, mounted on evaluations boards, are available at no cost.
