A 2-way, 90° power splitter has been introduced by MACOM. The MAPD-011018 has a maximum power input of 24dB, making it suitable for demanding applications such as CATV, Broadband and FTTx. Being both 260ºC re-flow compatible and surface mountable, the power splitter is easy to use. The spiltter operates from 5-250MHz but performs best between 5-85MHz, with a phase balance of 90° +/- three degrees.

The MAPD-011018 has an insertion loss of 1.2dB and 1.5dB and an isolation of 19.4dB and 17.9dB, providing low power loss and high signal separation. In addition, because of it's amplitude balance of 0.4dB and 0.2dB, the power splitter distributes power through both ports evenly.

“The MAPD-011018 is an excellent choice for designers requiring a tightly balanced 2-way 90° power splitter,” said Alan Miller, Product Manager, MACOM. “The MAPD-011018 has been specifically designed in 75Ω impedance to address CATV low distortion upstream applications from 5-250 MHz.”
