TUNING ELEMENTS
METALLIC TUNING ELEMENTS
Metallic tuning ele-
ments have a metal
tuning rotor inside a
threaded mounting
bushing. A thread on
the rotor engages an
internal thread in the
bushing. The rotor
threads are slotted across their axis with
2 slots 180° apart. By compressing the
probe along its axis, the slots function as
a spring. The probe threads are pressed
firmly into flank-to-flank engagement
with the internal threads of the bushing,
eliminating backlash, while providing a
uniform adjustment torque that is self
locking.
Standard models are useful from 2 to 33
GHz. Metallic tuning elements can be
used to change the capacitive loading
within a waveguide, or any place a
metallic tuning probe is required.

MICROWAVE TUNING ELEMENTS
SG-670B
DIELECTRIC TUNING ELEMENTS
The use of a dielec-
tric rod (instead of a
metallic probe) for
the tuning element
will provide the low-
est loss tuning for
high frequency appli-
cations. When the
dielectric rod is intro-
duced into a microwave cavity it has the
effect of making the cavity electrically
larger, and lowering the resonant fre-
quency. Dielectric tuning elements are
excellent for adjusting the frequency of
Gunn diode and IMPATT oscillators.

2.4 To add seal cap, add “C” at the
end of the model number for a
seal cap without a slot, and “B”
for a seal cap with a screw driver
slot.
3. Rotor adjusting slot is 0.16/4.0 x

MICROWAVE TUNING ELEMENTS
SG-670B
LC TUNING ELEMENTS
Variations of the stan-
dard metallic units,
LC tuning elements
are designed specifi-
cally for filter applica-
tions. These devices
provide a fixed post
length which is
extended by rotating the metallic rotor.
A typical application is a direct-coupled
TEM mode coaxial configuration. The
post length is selected to cover the
desired range. A circuit is designed
around the tunable post so that each
section approximates 76 ohms for opti-
mum resonator Q and high selectivity.

RESISTIVE TUNING ELEMENTS
The use of a lossy rod
material for the rotor
of the tuning element
provides a conve-
nient and effective
means of trimming
the microwave
device in a wave-
guide or cavity. The amount of power
absorbed is a function of the depth of
insertion of the rod into the waveguide
or cavity. Standard models are ideal for
frequencies of 1 to 18 GHz.
