Highly efficient, frequency selective dividers and combiners are typically a series of lowpass-highpass crossover junctions. The complexity usually ranges from one to four crossover junctions, in addition to close-up lowpass and highpass filters. Integrated Microwave is the leader in small, high-performance lumped element, combline, interdigital and suspended substrate multiplexers- including phase- and amplitude-matched designs.

Multiplexers are available in narrow, moderate, and octave passbands. Typical multiplexers will have a 1.5:1 maximum passband VSWR and a 2.0:1 maximum crossover VSWR.

Integrated Microwave can provide a customized solution promptly and at very competitive pricing.

Combline/Interdigital(ICBP) and Waveguide (IWBP) Series


Integrated Microwave has the technology to model and produce waveguide filters that are capable of meeting both group delay and amplitude specifications simultaneously, without the use of separate equalizers. These waveguide filters are achieved using either post or iris inductive suseptances. These filters can be designed to meet VSWR and attenuation specifications very nearly equal to more conventional Chebyshev or Butterworth designs while maintaining a low group delay variation over a large percentage of the passband. Insertion loss variation over the passband will closely track the group delay variation.
