Rev B
5dB Directional Coupler
PRELIMINARY
Description
The X3C21P1-05S is a low profile, high performance 5dB directional
coupler in a new easy to use, manufacturing friendly surface mount
package. It is designed for WCDMA and LTE applications. The
X3C21P1-05S is designed particularly for non-binary split and combine
in high power amplifiers, e.g. used along with a 3dB to get a 3-way, plus
other signal distribution applications where low insertion loss is
required. It can be used in high power applications up to 60 Watts.
Parts have been subjected to rigorous qualification testing and they are
manufactured using materials with coefficients of thermal expansion
(CTE) compatible with common substrates such as FR4, G-10, RF-35,
RO4003 and polyimide. Produced with 6 of 6 RoHS compliant tin
immersion finish

Insertion Loss Derating:
The insertion loss, at a given frequency, of a group of
couplers is measured at 25C and then averaged.
The measurements are performed under small signal
conditions (i.e. using a Vector Network Analyzer).
The process is repeated at 85C and 150C. A best-
fit line for the measured data is computed and then
plotted from -55C to 150C.
Power Derating:
The power handling and corresponding power derating
plots are a function of the thermal resistance, mounting
surface temperature (base plate temperature), maximum
continuous operating temperature of the coupler, and the
thermal insertion loss. The thermal insertion loss is
defined in the Power Handling section of the data sheet.
As the mounting interface temperature approaches the
maximum continuous operating temperature, the power
handling decreases to zero.
