Quick Connections eliminate the time
consuming tightening, torquing and loosening of connectors. Quick Connections
are needed during testing or in applications, where limited space requirements
make tightening and torquing of a coupling nut difficult or impossible. Quick
Connections cover eight connector series.
Six of those nine connector series were
designed by Spectrum Elektrotechnik
GmbH: Push-On connectors of types 7/
16, N, TNC and SMA slide directly onto
any female connector of the same series,
allowing quick and easy connection anddisconnection, guaranteeing repeatableperformance, reduced test time and long
life, operating over the full frequency
range of the particular connector series
with low insertion loss and excellent return loss.
The connector series of types BMA, SBX,
SBY and SMP were developed for a wide
range of microwave interconnect problems, mate applications for modularizedpackages, racks and panels and dense
packaging. The series SBX and SBY
were developed by Spectrum
Elektrotechnik GmbH for high powerinterconnecting modules, while BMA
and SMP are used for lower power applications, SMP especially for dense
packaging.

Push - On Connectors & Adapters
INTRODUCTION: PUSH-ON connectors do not use threaded coupling nuts, they are matedby just sliding together, allowing quick and easy connection and disconnection, guaranteeing
repeatable performance, reduced test times and longevity. PUSH-ONs are designed with anautomatic locking mechanism, and are also available with slotted beryllium copper outerconductor only, providing the necessary insertion and withdrawal force. PUSH-ONs can bepurchased with float mount, and are suited then for axial and radial misalignment. The
misalignment nature is obtained by a spring mechanism which separates the connector
interface from the flange housing and allows it to float for blind mating purposes. PUSH-ON
connectors can be divided into two groups:

PUSH-ON CONNECTORS MATING WITH REGULAR FEMALE CONNECTORS
PUSH-ON CONNECTOR SERIES BY DESIGNREGULAR CONNECTORS: Male connectors of types 7/16, N, TNC and SMA are designedwith threaded coupling nuts for safe attachment. Coupling these connectors means threading,tightening and torquing, then loosening and unthreading again. In various applications, e.g.
during repetitive testing, the process for connecting and disconnecting may be more time
consuming than the test cycle itself, especially when only fast go / no go tests are performed.
Occasionally, limited space requirements make tightening and torquing of coupling nuts ofregular connectors difficult, if not impossible.

PUSH-ON CONNECTORS MATING WITH REGULAR FEMALE CONNECTORS: To eliminate

FULL LOCKING PUSH-ON 7/16, N, AND TNC: The coupling nut of the push-on, the locknut, incorporates an intelligent mechanism, developed by Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH.
Easily the push-on slides onto any female connector of the same connector series, and locks
safely, when released. To disconnect simply push the lock nut forward again and keep in that
position until the push-on connector is removed.
There are applications where longer connection is needed and where the connector mustremain locked firmly. In such instances it must be assured that the push-on cannot be discon10

e:/quickc98/introduc.pm6

the time consuming tightening, torquing and loosening of regular connectors, Spectrum
Elektrotechnik GmbH developed the push-on connectors, push-on connector savers andpush-on adapters. The push-on connector is a male connector and does not use a threaded
coupling nut. It slides directly onto any female connector of the same series, allowing quick
and easy connection and disconnection, guaranteeing repeatable performance, reduced test
times and long life, operating over the full frequency range of the particular connector series
with low insertion loss and excellent return loss. Push-ons were designed for series 7/16, N,
TNC and SMA, and in different configurations, including full locking, locking with nonlocking rear nut, and non-locking.

Push - On Connectors & Adaptersnected, not even by mistake. For that purpose a threaded rear nut is employed. With the rearnut engaged the connector cannot be pulled off, not even by mistake (Exception: no fulllocking version available in SMA.)LOCKING PUSH-ON 7/16, N, TNC AND SMA WITH NON-LOCKING REAR NUT: The
push-on connector operates exactly like the full locking version, with the exception that therear nut cannot be engaged.

NON-LOCKING PUSH-ON 7/16, N, TNC AND SMA: The non-locking push-on connectors
are recommended for short term testing, testing that usually takes only seconds. The nonlocking push-on connector does not employ a lock nut, therefore does not grip onto thethread of the mating female connector. The outer conductor is slotted and made fromberyllium copper, heat treated. Its insertion/withdrawal force keeps the connector in place.
However, cables, especially of bigger dimensions, may pull off the push-on connector when
there is no guiding and securing hand. These non-locking push-on connectors should only be
used for short term testing with a guiding hand on the connector for safe connection.

PUSH-ON CONNECTORS SAVERS AND ADAPTERS were developed for attachment to cable
assemblies which are terminated with regular connectors. The connector saver, or adapter is
supplied with a standard connector on one side, and a push-on connector at the other end.
The standard connector end engages with the standard connector of opposite sex at the cable
assembly. The push-on end slides directly onto any standard female of the same sex
configuration. Cable assemblies are modified in seconds, changed from a standard product toa state-of-the-art push-on assembly.
Some of these push-on connector savers and adapters are also available with float mount, andare suited for axial and radial misalignment. The misalignment nature of the adapter isobtained by a spring mechanism which separates the connector interface from the flange
housing and allows it to float, as needed for blind mating purposes.
Push-on connector savers and adapters are available within and between the series 7/16, N,
TNC and SMA. They are normally supplied in full locking configuration, locking with nonlocking rear nut and non-locking. (Exception: no full locking version available in SMA.)

e:/quickc98/introduc.pm6

PUSH-ON CONNECTOR SERIES BY DESIGN: Several connector series, such as BMA, SBX,
SBY and SMP were developed for a wide variety of microwave interconnect problems, mateapplications for modularized packages, racks and panels and dense packaging. The connector
series, depending on size and design are used for low, moderate and high power applications.
They are designed for multiple interconnects, maintaining reliable performance and long life.

Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH P.O. Box 45 05 33, 80905 Munich, Germany Tel. (89) 354 804-0, Fax (89) 354 804-90 (Country Code: 49)

Push - On Connectors & Adapters
THE BMA is used for lower and moderate power microwave interconnect applications,mating solutions for modular packaging, interconnecting racks and panels. The BMA float
mount female connectors are suited for axial and radial misalignment. The misalignment
nature of the connector is obtained by a spring mechanism which separates the connector
interface from the flange housing and allows it to float. BMA connectors are available forsemi-rigid cables and flexible cables as well.

THE SBX (Spectrum-Blind Mate-X) connector was developed in 1993 for interconnecting
high power microwave modules, using direct mount or floating rear mount, and is available asstripline connector, and as cable connector for certain standard semi-rigid cables and flexible
cables as well. It operate up to 8.0 GHz. The connector is usually integrated into the housingof the component, therefore the connection normally cannot been seen from the outside. The
SBX is specifically used for packaging and interconnecting those high power microwave
modules, drawers and racks in state-of-the-art systems that do not allow longer system downtime. Replacement of faulty high power microwave modules using the SBX can happen within
seconds. The SBX float mount connectors are ideally suited for axial and radial misalignment.
They employ a spring mechanism that separates the connector interface from the flange
housing and allows the floating.
THE SBY (Spectrum-Blind Mate-Y) connector was developed in 1993 for the same
program the SBX was needed and also used for interconnecting modules operating at highmicrowave power and is normally integrated into the housing of the component. The SBY
connector is very similar to the SBX, the major difference is its smaller size and slightly
different mechanical configuration. By design and due to the smaller physical dimensions it
takes less power, but therefore operates to higher frequencies, namely 12.0 GHz.

extremely small and therefore allows high density packaging. It was originally designed topermit the female connector to incline freely in direction while the mechanical and electricalconnection remains maintained. The male connector is available in smooth bore for easy
connection and disconnection, with limited detent, characterized by a certain insertion andwithdrawal force, and with full detent, needing high insertion force and a substantial
withdrawal force, usually requiring a tool for disconnection. The full detendet SMP
connection is suitable for mobile applications, extreme shock and vibration requirements.
SMP connectors are offered for applications to 18.0 GHz and 26.5 GHz, precision designs
are even operating to 40.0 GHz. Spectrum´s SMP connectors are meeting interface
dimensions to DESC specifications 94007 and 94008. Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH hasdeveloped SMP test connectors as well, and designed and manufactures SMP calibration kits.
Spectrum´s SMP test connectors and calibration components are supplied with an additional
thread that can be employed to ensure perfect and repeatable mating during calibration.

7/16 Push-On Connectors & Adapters
PUSH-ON 7/16-TYPE CONNECTORS eliminate time consuming tightening, torquing and loosening of 7/16-male connectors during testing or in applications where limited space requirements make tightening and torquing of a coupling nut difficult, if not impossible.
The 7/16 push-on slides directly onto any standard 7/16-female, allowing prompt connection
and loosening. Three types of push-on 7/16 connectors are available: full-locking, locking
with non-locking rear nut, and non-locking.
Full Locking push-on 7/16-Type connectors are recommended when longer testing is required and the connectors must be firmly locked so that they cannot be disconnected, even by
mistake. Locking with non-locking rear nut 7/16-Type connectors are recommended where
safe locking is necessary, but long term testing is not required. Non-locking push-on connectors are recommended for short period testing, testing that usually takes only seconds.
Push-On 7/16-Type connectors are available for termination with cables RG-142B/U, RG-400/U
and RG-214/U. State-of-the-art high performance cables using push-on connectors are available as well, however, these high performance cable assemblies can only be purchased completely terminated; they can be found in the section "Cable Assemblies" starting on page 211 of
this catalog.

PUSH-ON 7/16-TYPE CONNECTOR SAVERS AND ADAPTERS, were developed for attachment to cable assemblies which are terminated with regular connectors. The adapter has astandard connector on one side, and a push-on connector on the other end. The standard
connector end of the adapter engages with the standard connector of the opposite sex at thecable assembly. These connnector savers and adapters modify cable assemblies in seconds,
changing them from a standard product to a state-of-the-art push-on assembly.
Push-on adapters are available for a variety of connectors and both male and female sexes
within the connector series. 7/16-type push-on connectors savers are supplied in full locking,locking with non-locking rear nut and non-locking configuration.

BMA Applications & Features
BMA (Blind Mate-A) push-on connectors were developed for interconnecting microwave
modules, using direct mount or floating rear mount. They were created almost 30 years ago
and are used in several programs. Today they are mostly replaced by the newer push-on
connector designs. BMA connectors meet microwave requirements, combined with themultiple interconnecting option. The connectors can be integrated into, or attached to the
housing of the component. BMA connectors are used for packaging and interconnecting
those power microwave modules, drawers and racks in state-of-the-art systems that do notallow longer system down time. BMA push-on connectors allow replacement of faulty highpower microwave modules within seconds. To secure the modules, a typical method of interlocking is using lock screws.

BMA (Blind Mate-A) female connectors are available, offering radial misalignment with themating plug connector. A spring mechanism separates the connector interface from the flange
housing and allows floating for blind mating purposes.

BMA (Blind Mate-A) connectors are designed for moderate power at higher frequencies,
operating to 22.0 GHz.

BMA (Blind Mate-A) connectors are also available as cable connectors for several
standard semi-rigid cables, low density semi-rigid cables, standard flexible cables and low
density flexible cables. The availability of BMA connectors allows easy interconnection of
microwave components. Standard units are available in bulkhead or panel mount designs for
solder and/or compression clamp attachment. Female cable connectors can be obtained infloat or rigid mount. BMA float mount connectors are ideally suited for axial and radial
misalignment. They employ a spring mechanism that separates the connector interface fromthe flange housing and allows the floating. Radial float mount connectors are used for
applications requiring a radial misalignment of more than +/- 0.02 inches (0.5mm).

Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is a very innovative company, offering special services inengineering in order to meet the customer's needs to perfection.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has developed the SBX (Spectrum-Blind Mate-X) push-on
connectors and the the SBY (Spectrum-Blind Mate-Y) push-on connectors for interconnecting high power microwave modules, using direct mount or floating rear mount.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH manufactures the SMP (Sub-Miniature-Push-On)
connector, which is a 2.4 mm connector, using solid dielectric interface. And Spectrum has developed calibration kits for the SMP connector series to be used with the ANA´s of HP and Wiltron.

e:/quickc98/bma.pm6

Test equipment is usually not supplied with BMA test port connectors. Therefore an adequate number of between series instrument grade adapters to other important connector
series are available, such as N and SMA.

Applications & Features, Type BMA
When using blind mate connectors in an application, careful consideration has to be given
to choosing the right connector series, the appropriate connector model within that series,
and the correct mounting features. Spectrum Elektrotechnik Gmbh does offer besides the
BMA series, also SBX, SBY and SMP blind mate connectors, and all those series areshown in this Handbook. This makes it easy for the customer to identify the best connector
or connectors for his system. A system also may use several or all of the blind mate connectors offered. Important parameters for identifying the proper connector and its series are:e:/quickc98/bma.pm6* POWER REQUIREMENT* OPERATING FREQUENCY* RIGID OR FLOAT MOUNT CONNECTORS* CONNECTOR-TO-CONNECTOR FIXED TOLERANCES* CONNECTOR-TO-CONNECTOR FLOAT TOLERANCES* MATING FORCES* FLOAT MOUNT SPRING LOADING* CONNECTOR PACKAGING DENSITY IN MULTIPLE CONNECTOR ARRAYS* PANEL DEFLECTION

BMA Rigid Mount Applications & Features

e:/quickc98/bma.pm6

For applications such as modularized MIC to MIC packages, rigid mount connectors arerecommended, as dense packaging is usually required, and relatively tight tolerances can beheld. The axial and radial float tolerances of the BMA interface is used to accommodate
misalignment. A typical method of interlocking modules is using jack screws, as shown.

BMA (Blind Mate-A) female connectors are available, offering radial misalignment withthe mating plug connector. A spring mechanism separates the connector interface from theflange housing and allows floating for blind mating purposes. The spring mechanism is aligning the mating connectors, therefore the forces are transmitted to the mounting panel. Under
extreme mismatch conditions the mating forces can be considerably high when using several
connectors. This can cause bowing of the mounting panel.

BMA Rigid & Float Mount Applications & Features
When using several BMA blind mateconnectors at a component, on a module
to motherboard or rack or panel
application, the design must take into
consideration the interface mating forces
to engage and disengage the connectors,
and the spring pre-load forces in floating
mount cases.Disregarding this, distortionof mounting plates and panels can occur,
preventing proper mating of theconnectors, resulting into degraded
performance of the component.
Considering the panel or motherboard asa beam under deflection can be used as agood approximation for calculating theamount of distortion or bowing. But it
has to be noted that the formulas andtables given below and to the right are
not taken into consideration when forces
are being applied from different angles,
or operation in the event of additional
stress because of the occurrence ofmultiple forces.

EXAMPLE, USING 4 PIECES FLOAT MOUNT BMA CONNECTORS:Mating Force of BMA: 3.4 N
FM(4 connectors) = 4 x 3.4N = 13.6 N
But: The maximum force for 1.27 mm axial misalignement, which is the maximum possible displacement,
reads 20N, as shown in the diagram on page 33. Therefore the greater displacement force will be used in
the following calculations instead:Max. Displacement Force of BMA: 20.0 N
FD(4 connectors) = 4 x 20N = 80 N

U

The maximum deflection calculated in this example is less than the max. allowable axial misalignmentof 1.27mm, as allowed by definition for the BMA float mount. Additional, in the calculation it isassumed that the forces of all 4 connectors are applying in the center of the panel. Therefore additional
forces, as contributed by radial misalignment, transverse and shearing forces may be disregarded.
The use of the panel choosen in this example for 4 BMA´s seems to be very safe for this application.

N Push-On Connectors & Adapters
PUSH-ON N-TYPE CONNECTORS eliminate time consuming tightening, torquing and loosening of N-male connectors during testing or in applications where limited space requirements make tightening and torquing of a coupling nut difficult, if not impossible.
The N push-on slides directly onto any standard N-female, allowing prompt connection andloosening. Three types of push-on N connectors are available: full-locking, locking with nonlocking rear nut, and non-locking.
Full Locking push-on N-Type connectors are recommended when longer testing is required
and the connectors must be firmly locked so that they cannot be disconnected, even by mistake. Locking with non-locking rear nut N-Type connectors are recommended where safe
locking is necessary, but long term testing is not required. Non-locking push-on connectors
are recommended for short period testing, testing that usually takes only seconds.
Push-On N-Type connectors are available for termination with cables RG-142B/U, RG-400/U
and RG-214/U. State-of-the-art high performance cables using push-on connectors are available as well, however, these high performance cable assemblies can only be purchased completely terminated; they can be found in the section "Cable Assemblies" on pages 231-233 of thiscatalog.

PUSH-ON N-TYPE CONNECTOR SAVERS AND ADAPTERS, were developed for attachment
to cable assemblies which are terminated with regular connectors. The adapter has a standard
connector on one side, and a push-on connector on the other end. The standard connector
end of the adapter engages with the standard connector of the opposite sex at the cable
assembly. These connnector savers and adapters modify cable assemblies in seconds, changing them from a standard product to a state-of-the-art push-on assembly.
Push-on adapters are available for a variety of connectors and both male and female sexes
within the connector series. N-type push-on connectors savers are supplied in full locking,locking with non-locking rear nut and non-locking configuration.

SBX Applications & Features
SBX (Spectrum-Blind Mate-X) push-on connectors were developed in 1993 for interconnecting high power microwave modules, using direct mount or floating rear mount. SBX
high performance connectors meet high power requirements, combined with microwave multiple interconnects. The connectors can be integrated into the housing of the component sothat the connection even cannot been recognized from the outside. SBX connectors are
specifically used for packaging and interconnecting those power microwave modules,
drawers and racks in state-of-the-art systems that do not allow longer system down time.
SBX push-on connectors allow replacement of faulty high power microwave modules within
seconds. A typical method of interlocking modules is using lock screws.

SBX (Spectrum-Blind Mate-X) female connectors are available, offering radial misalignment with the mating plug connector. A spring mechanism separates the connector interface
from the flange housing and allows floating for blind mating purposes.

SBX (Spectrum-Blind Mate-X) connectors are designed for high power at moderatefrequency, operating to 8.0 GHz. Precision design leads to lowest VSWR. Excellent electricalperformance means little reflected power, which is the prerequisite for superior performanceat higher power applications.

SBX (Spectrum-Blind Mate-X) connectors are also available as cable connectors for several

Some test equipment may not be supplied with SBX test port connectors. Therefore anadequate number of between series instrument grade adapters to other important connector
series are available, such as 7/16, N and SMA.
SBX float mount adapters are available to 7/16 and N. Those adapters are of particularinterest in applications where components are using several SBX connectors in parallel, as
mounting tolerances and misalignment have to be taken into consideration, and connection at
the other end of the adapter is supposed to be made by cable assemblies using those otherstandard connectors of types 7/16 or N.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is a very innovative company, offering special services inengineering in order to meet the customer's needs to perfection.

standard semi-rigid cables, low density semi-rigid cables, standard flexible cables and low
density flexible cables. The availability of SBX connectors allows easy interconnection of
microwave power components. Standard units are available in bulkhead or panel mountdesigns for solder and compression clamp attachment. Female cable connectors can beobtained in float or rigid mount. SBX float mount connectors are ideally suited for axial andradial misalignment. They employ a spring mechanism that separates the connector interface
from the flange housing and allows the floating. Radial float mount connectors are used for
applications requiring a radial misalignment of more than +/- 0.045" inches (1.14mm).

Applications & Features, Type SBX
When using blind mate connectors in an application, careful consideration has to be given
to choosing the right connector series, the appropriate connector model within that series,
and the correct mounting features. Spectrum Elektrotechnik Gmbh does offer besides the
SBX series, also SBY, BMA and SMP blind mate connectors, and all those series areshown in this Handbook. This makes it easy for the customer to identify the best connector
or connectors for his system. A system also may use several or all of the blind mate connectors offered. Important parameters for identifying the proper connector and its series are:e:/quikc98/sbx1.pm6* POWER REQUIREMENT* OPERATING FREQUENCY* RIGID OR FLOAT MOUNT CONNECTORS* CONNECTOR-TO-CONNECTOR FIXED TOLERANCES* CONNECTOR-TO-CONNECTOR FLOAT TOLERANCES* MATING FORCES* FLOAT MOUNT SPRING LOADING* CONNECTOR PACKAGING DENSITY IN MULTIPLE CONNECTOR ARRAYS* PANEL DEFLECTION

SBX Rigid Mount Applications & Features

e:/quikc98/sbx1.pm6

For applications such as modularized MIC to MIC packages, only rigid mount connectors
can be used. Relatively tight tolerances need to be held, as the rigid mount SBX does notaccomodate radial misalignment. Axial misalignment should be avoided when the connector
is used in high power environment. As in most case only one SBX connector per module isused as power input or output, the interlocking screws can accomodated certain misalignment. A typical method of interlocking modules is using jack screws.

ment with the mating plug connector. A spring mechanism separates the connector interface
from the flange housing and allows floating for blind mating purposes. The spring mechanism
is aligning the mating connectors, therefore the forces are transmitted to the mounting panel.
Under extreme mismatch conditions the mating forces can be considerably high when using
several connectors. This can cause bowing of the mounting panel.

SBX Rigid & Float Mount Applications & Features
When using several SBX blind mateconnectors at a component, on a module
to motherboard or rack or panel
application, the design must take into
consideration the interface mating forces
to engage and disengage the connectors,
and the spring pre-load forces in floating
mount cases.Disregarding this, distortionof mounting plates and panels can occur,
preventing proper mating of theconnectors, resulting into degraded
performance of the component.
Considering the panel or motherboard asa beam under deflection can be used as agood approximation for calculating theamount of distortion or bowing. But it
has to be noted that the formulas andtables given below and to the right are
not taken into consideration when forces
are being applied from different angles,
or operation in the event of additional
stress because of the occurrence ofmultiple forces.

The maximum deflection calculated in this example is less than the max. allowable axial misalignmentof 1.27mm, as allowed by definition for the SBX float mount. Additional, in the calculation it isassumed that the forces of all 2 connectors are applying in the center of the panel. Therefore additional
forces, as contributed by radial misalignment, transverse and shearing forces may be disregarded.
The use of the panel choosen in this example for 2 SBX´s seems to be very safe for this application.

SBY Applications & Features
SBY (Spectrum-Blind Mate-Y) push-on connectors were developed in 1993 for the same
program the SBX was needed, interconnecting high power microwave modules, using direct
mount or floating rear mount. SBY high performance connectors meet high power requirements, combined with microwave multiple interconnects. The connectors can be integrated
into the housing of the component so that the connection even cannot been recognized fromthe outside. SBY connectors are specifically used for packaging and interconnecting thosepower microwave modules, drawers and racks in state-of-the-art systems that do not allow
longer system down time. SBY push-on connectors allow replacement of faulty high power
microwave modules within seconds. A typical method of interlocking modules is using lock screws.

SBY (Spectrum-Blind Mate-Y) female connectors are available, offering radial misalignment with the mating plug connector. A spring mechanism separates the connector interface
from the flange housing and allows floating for blind mating purposes.

SBY (Spectrum-Blind Mate-Y) connectors are designed for high power, operating to 12.0
GHz. Precision design leads to lowest VSWR. Excellent electrical performance means little
reflected power, which is the prerequisite for superior performance at higher power applications.

SBY (Spectrum-Blind Mate-Y) connectors are also available as cable connectors for several

Some test equipment may not be supplied with SBY test port connectors. Therefore anadequate number of between series instrument grade adapters to other important connector
series are available, such as 7/16, N and SMA.
SBY float mount adapters are available to 7/16 and N. Those adapters are of particular interest in applications where components are using several SBY connectors in parallel, as mounting tolerances and misalignment have to be taken into consideration, and connection at theother end of the adapter is supposed to be made by cable assemblies using those other standard connectors of types 7/16 or N.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is a very innovative company, offering special services inengineering in order to meet the customer's needs to perfection.

standard semi-rigid cables, low density semi-rigid cables, standard flexible cables and low
density flexible cables. The availability of SBY connectors allows easy interconnection of
microwave power components. Standard units are available in bulkhead or panel mount designs for solder and compression clamp attachment. Female cable connectors can be obtainedin float or rigid mount. SBY float mount connectors are ideally suited for axial and radial
misalignment. They employ a spring mechanism that separates the connector interface fromthe flange housing and allows the floating. Radial float mount connectors are used for applications requiring a radial misalignment of more than +/- 0.045 inches (1.14mm).

Applications & Features, Type SBY
When using blind mate connectors in an application, careful consideration has to be given
to choosing the right connector series, the appropriate connector model within that series,
and the correct mounting features. Spectrum Elektrotechnik Gmbh does offer besides the
SBY series, also SBX, BMA and SMP blind mate connectors, and all those series areshown in this Handbook. This makes it easy for the customer to identify the best connector
or connectors for his system. A system also may use several or all of the blind mate connectors offered. Important parameters for identifying the proper connector and its series are:e:/quikc98/sby.pm6* POWER REQUIREMENT* OPERATING FREQUENCY* RIGID OR FLOAT MOUNT CONNECTORS* CONNECTOR-TO-CONNECTOR FIXED TOLERANCES* CONNECTOR-TO-CONNECTOR FLOAT TOLERANCES* MATING FORCES* FLOAT MOUNT SPRING LOADING* CONNECTOR PACKAGING DENSITY IN MULTIPLE CONNECTOR ARRAYS* PANEL DEFLECTION

SBY Rigid Mount Applications & Features

e:/quikc98/sby.pm6

For applications such as modularized MIC to MIC packages, only rigid mount connectors
can be used. Relatively tight tolerances need to be held, as the rigid mount SBY does notaccomodate radial misalignment. Axial misalignment should be avoided when the connector
is used in high power environment. As in most case only one SBY connector per module isused as power input or output, the interlocking screws can accomodated certain misalignment. A typical method of interlocking modules is using jack screws.

ment with the mating plug connector. A spring mechanism separates the connector interface
from the flange housing and allows floating for blind mating purposes. The spring mechanism
is aligning the mating connectors, therefore the forces are transmitted to the mounting panel.
Under extreme mismatch conditions the mating forces can be considerably high when using
several connectors. This can cause bowing of the mounting panel.

SBY Rigid & Float Mount Applications & Features
When using several SBY blind mateconnectors at a component, on a module
to motherboard or rack or panel
application, the design must take into
consideration the interface mating forces
to engage and disengage the connectors,
and the spring pre-load forces in floating
mount cases.Disregarding this, distortionof mounting plates and panels can occur,
preventing proper mating of theconnectors, resulting into degraded
performance of the component.
Considering the panel or motherboard asa beam under deflection can be used as agood approximation for calculating theamount of distortion or bowing. But it
has to be noted that the formulas andtables given below and to the right are
not taken into consideration when forces
are being applied from different angles,
or operation in the event of additional
stress because of the occurrence ofmultiple forces.

SBY (Spectrum Blind Mate-Y) female connectors are available, offering radial misalignment with the mating plug connector. A spring mechanism separates the connector interface
from the flange housing and allows floating for blind mating purposes. The spring mechanism
is aligning the mating connectors, therefore the forces are transmitted to the mounting panel.
Under extreme mismatch conditions the mating forces can be considerably high when using
several connectors. This can cause bowing of the mounting panel.

EXAMPLE, USING 2 PIECES FLOAT MOUNT SBY CONNECTORS:Mating Force of SBY: 70 N
FM(2 connectors) = 2 x 70N = 140 N
But: The maximum force for 1.27 mm axial misalignement, which is the maximum possible displacement,
reads 154N, as shown in the diagram on page 91. Therefore the greater displacement force will be used in
the following calculations instead:Max. Displacement Force of SBY: 79.9 N
FD(2 connectors) = 2 x 79.9N = 159.8 N
Aluminum mounting panel of Al Mg Si 0.5:

L x w x t = 100mm x 12.7mm x 6.35mm.

Modulus of Elasticity:

E = 70,000 N/mm2

Yield Strength:

Ry = 160 N/mm2, as shown in the table.

The maximum deflection calculated in this example is less than the max. allowable axial misalignmentof 1.27mm, as allowed by definition for the SBY float mount. Additional, in the calculation it isassumed that the forces of all 2 connectors are applying in the center of the panel. Therefore additional
forces, as contributed by radial misalignment, transverse and shearing forces may be disregarded.
The use of the panel choosen in this example for 2 SBY´s seems to be very safe for this application.

SMA Push-On Connectors & Adapters
PUSH-ON SMA-TYPE CONNECTORS eliminate time consuming tightening, torquing andloosening of SMA-male connectors during testing or in applications where limited spacerequirements make tightening and torquing of a coupling nut difficult, if not impossible.
The SMA push-on slides directly onto any standard SMA-female, allowing prompt connection and loosening. Three types of push-on SMA connectors are available: full-locking, locking with non-locking rear nut, and non-locking.
Full Locking push-on SMA-Type connectors are recommended when longer testing is required and the connectors must be firmly locked so that they cannot be disconnected, even by
mistake. Locking with non-locking rear nut SMA-Type connectors are recommended where
safe locking is necessary, but long term testing is not required. Non-locking push-on connectors are recommended for short period testing, testing that usually takes only seconds.
Push-On SMA-Type connectors are available for termination with cables RG-142B/U, RG-400/U
and RG-214/U. State-of-the-art high performance cables using push-on connectors are available as well, however, these high performance cable assemblies are only available completely
terminated; they can be found in the section "Cable Assemblies" on pages 234-236 of thiscatalog.

PUSH-ON SMA-TYPE CONNECTOR SAVERS, or adapters, were developed for attachment
to cable assemblies which are terminated with regular connectors. The adapter has a standard
connector on one side, and a push-on connector on the other end. The standard connector
end of the adapter engages with the standard connector of the opposite sex at the cable
assembly. These connnector savers modify cable assemblies in seconds, changing them from astandard product to a state-of-the-art push-on assembly.
Push-on adapters are availabe for a variety of connectors and both male and female sexes
within the connector series. SMA-type push-on connectors savers are supplied in locking
with non-locking rear nut and non-locking configuration.

Push-On Connectors & Adapters of Type SMP
THE SMP (Sub-Miniature-Push-On) is a 2.4 mm connector, using solid dielectric interface.
The connector is extremely small and therefore allows high density packaging. It was originally designed to permit the female connector to incline freely in direction while the mechanical and electrical connection remains maintained. The male connector is available in smoothbore for easy connection and disconnection, with limited detent, characterized by a certain
insertion and withdrawal force, and with full detent, needing high insertion force and a substantial withdrawal force, usually requiring a tool for disconnection. The full detended SMP
connection is suitable for mobile applications, extreme shock and vibration requirements.
SMP connectors are offered for applications to 18.0 GHz and 26.5 GHz, precision designs
are even operating to 40.0 GHz. Spectrum´s SMP connectors are meeting interface dimensions to DESC specifications 94007 and 94008. Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has developed SMP test connectors as well, and designed and manufactures SMP calibration kits.
Spectrums SMP test connectors and calibration components are supplied with an additional
thread that can be employed to ensure perfect and repeatable mating during calibration.

SMP (Sub-Miniature-Push-On) connectors are specifically used for packaging and interconnecting low power microwave modules, drawers and racks in state-of-the-art systems
that do not allow longer system down time, and are built on a modular basis. SMP push-on
connectors allow replacement of faulty microwave modules within seconds. A typical methodof interlocking modules is using lock screws.

SMP (Sub-Miniature-Push-On) connectors are also available as cable connectors for several smaller standard semi-rigid cables of diameters 0.047" and 0.085", low density semirigid cables, standard flexible cables and low density flexible cables. The availability of
SMP connectors allows easy interconnection of microwave power components. Standard
units are available as straight or mitred right angled connectors, in bulkhead or panel mountor flanged designs for solder or compression clamp attachment.

SMP (Sub-Miniature-Push-On) connectors can be obtained hermetically sealed for pressingor threading into the component housing,

SMP (Sub-Miniature-Push-On) connectors are available as circuit board connectors, in avariety of straight, mitred right angle and flange mount designs.

Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is a very innovative company, offering special services inengineering in order to meet the customer's needs to perfection.

e:/quickc98/smp1.pm6

Some test equipment may not be supplied with SMP test port connectors. Therefore anadequate number of between series instrument grade adapters to other important connector
series are available, such as 2.9mm, 7mm and SMA.

Applications & Features, Type SMP
When using blind mate connectors in an application, careful consideration has to be given tochoosing the right connector series, the appropriate connector model within that series, andthe correct mounting features. Spectrum Elektrotechnik Gmbh does offer besides the SMP
series, also BMA and SBX, SBY blind mate connectors, and all those series are shown in thisHandbook. This makes it easy for the customer to identify the best connector or connectors
for his system. A system also may use several or all of the blind mate connectors offered.
Important parameters for identifying the proper connector and its series are:e:/quickc98/smp1.pm6* POWER REQUIREMENT* OPERATING FREQUENCY* RIGID OR FLOAT MOUNT CONNECTORS* CONNECTOR-TO-CONNECTOR FIXED TOLERANCES* CONNECTOR-TO-CONNECTOR FLOAT TOLERANCES* MATING FORCES* FLOAT MOUNT SPRING LOADING* CONNECTOR PACKAGING DENSITY IN MULTIPLE CONNECTOR ARRAYS* PANEL DEFLECTION

SMP Applications & Features
SMP male shroud

SHROUDS:
The male flange mount SMP connector is called the“shroud”. It is mounted to modules and connects at theother end to cable or stripline, etc. Inserting the “bullet”
between two shrouds provides a typical module to module
separation of 0.275 inches ( 7.0 mm ). The “shrouds” aremade of passivated stainless steel and surround a center
conductor of 0.015 inches ( 0.38 mm ). Shrouds are available full detent, limited detent, or with smooth bore. For
specifications, or further details please refer to the SMP
specifications at the beginning of this section.

SMP female bullet
SMP male shroud

BULLETS:The SMP female/female adapter is called the “bullet”. It
mates with the SMP male connector. Inserting the “bullet”
between two male flange mount connectors, the “shrouds”,
provides a typical module to module separation of 0.275
inches (7.0 mm). Shorter or longer versions of “bullets”
are available, or can be designed upon customer request.
The outer and center conductors of the “bullets” are madefrom beryllium copper, heat treated and gold plated. For
specifications, or further details please refer to the SMP
specifications at the beginning of this section.

SMP female bullet

RIGHT ANGLE CONNECTORS:
SMP female right angle connectors are availabe for semi
rigid cable and for flexible cable as well. They are usuallyconnecting to modules, e.g. mating with the SMP flange
mount male connector, the shroud. The right angle connectors are needed for limited space requirements. Very shortright angle connectors with lowest profile were developedfor even tighter space requirements. For the mating shroud
it has to be decided carefully, whether full detent, limited
detent or smooth bore should be used. This depends mainlyon the application. A test cable being connected/disconnected many times will prefer smooth bore, while the use inmobile equipment may require full detent.

DENSE PACKAGING:
The SMP miniature high performance interconnect system
reduces space requirements. It allows for dense packaging
with connector spacing as close as 0.170 inches ( 4.3mm ).
For applications that require hermetic sealing, the flange
end mounts over 0.015 inches ( 0.38mm) glass seal pin.

Dimensions shown are inches over millimeters.

Frequency: DC - 40.0 GHz min.

Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has developed an SMP Calibration System that allows testing SMP connectors with guaranteed repeatability. To ensure proper mating, the SMP Test
Connectors employ additional threading, ensuring perfect andrepeatable mating, avoiding uncertainties that cannot be prevented with pure snap on connectors. The connectors willmate properly with standard SMP connectors.
To the left and above Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has
documented the interface mating dimensions of the test connectors. The commercial test connector, as specified above,
was mainly needed during the time when the DESC Specification still allowed protruding center contacts and dielectrics.

TNC Push-On Connectors & Adapters
PUSH-ON TNC-TYPE CONNECTORS eliminate time consuming tightening, torquing andloosening of TNC-male connectors during testing or in applications where limited space requirements make tightening and torquing of a coupling nut difficult, if not impossible.
The TNC push-on slides directly onto any standard TNC-female, allowing prompt connection and loosening. Three types of push-on TNC connectors are available: full-locking, locking with non-locking rear nut, and non-locking.
Full Locking push-on TNC-Type connectors are recommended when longer testing is required and the connectors must be firmly locked so that they cannot be disconnected, even by
mistake. Locking with non-locking rear nut TNC-Type connectors are recommended where
safe locking is necessary, but long term testing is not required. Non-locking push-on connectors are recommended for short period testing, testing that usually takes only seconds.
Push-On TNC-Type connectors are available for termination with cables RG-142B/U, RG-400/U
and RG-214/U. State-of-the-art high performance cables using push-on connectors are available as well, however, these high performance cable assemblies are only available completely
terminated; they can be found in the section "Cable Assemblies" on page 242 -243 of thiscatalog.

PUSH-ON TNC-TYPE CONNECTOR SAVERS, or adapters, were developed for attachment
to cable assemblies which are terminated with regular connectors. The adapter has a standard
connector on one side, and a push-on connector on the other end. The standard connector
end of the adapter engages with the standard connector of the opposite sex at the cable
assembly. These connnector savers modify cable assemblies in seconds, changing them from astandard product to a state-of-the-art push-on assembly.
Push-on adapters are availabe for a variety of connectors and both male and female sexes
within the connector series. TNC-type push-on connectors savers are supplied in full locking, locking with non-locking rear nut and non-locking configuration.

Cable Assemblies
INTRODUCTION: Cable Assemblies are necessary to interconnect components subsystems and systems.
REGULAR CABLE ASSEMBLIES: Many cables are available, terminated with a variety of connectors andconnector styles. Spectrums “´97 Handbook Cable Assemblies” shows on 176 pages a large number ofcables and connectors, satisfying the individual needs.
CABLE ASSEMBLIES WITH INTERCHANGEABLE CONNECTORS: The answer to the problem at test stations
where test cables are calibrated with the system, and different connector configurations are needed during
testing, and a new calibration of the system is not desired, as it would be too time consuming. Cable
Assemblies with Interchangeable Connectors consist of Primary Connector Units, fitted to the cable,
accepting those Interchangeable Connector Heads. As the Interchangeable Connector Heads have almost
identical electrical performance and are of same electrical length, they can be exchanged during testing. If
the performance of a Connector Head becomes worn out, it can be replaced in no time, testing can becontinued, as the electrical performance remains the same. Basic Connector Units have been developed forthe phase stable ANA test cables of types 18 and 22, and as well as for a variety of other test cables
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is offering, such as the high performance cables of types 10, 14, 17, 100
and 140. The Interchangeable Connector Heads are available in most popular connector series, such as
7mm, N, SMA and TNC. All these connector heads are of the same electrical length (except for the short
Nf).
CABLE ASSEMBLY KITS WITH INTERCHANGEABLE CONNECTORS: Cable assemblies with Interchangeable Connectors can be supplied in an instrument case, as a Standard Kit, or a Professional Kit. The Kit contains thecable assembly with the basic connector units, Interchangeable Connector Heads, and torque wrenches.

CUSTOM PRODUCTS: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is a very innovative company. Our engineers areconstantly designing new products, or modifying existing products to customer’s requests. Therefore, catalogs will never be complete. If you do not find in our catalogs exactly what you need, please contact oursales or engineering department, or your nearest representative.

CABLE ASSEMBLIES WITH PUSH-ON CONNECTORS: In various applications repetitive testing needs to takeplace. Hundreds, or sometimes even thousands of identical components have to be tested. Using regularconnectors means threading on the connector, tightening and torquing, then loosening and disconnecting.
This is a very time consuming process, which in some cases may even be longer than the electrical test
cycle. Push-On Connectors and Connector Savers were developed to eliminate all the time consumingtightening, torquing and loosening of the connectors during test. The Push-On connector slides directly
onto any standard female connector of the same series, allowing quick and easy connection and disconnection. Push-On Connectors are available as locking, locking with non-locking rear nut and non-locking. 50
Ohms Push-On Connectors are available in series 7/16, N, SMA and TNC. For 75 Ohms the Push-Ons
were designed in series N and F. Cable assemblies can be terminated directly with Push-On Connectors.
Standard cable assemblies can be turned into assemblies with Push-On Connectors by using Push-On
Adapters.

Assemblies with Interchangeable Connectors
INTRODUCTION: To ensure accurate testing and optimum system performance, the cable
assemblies of test stations are always calibrated with the system. One certain cable set will be
used, fitted with certain connectors.
It happens then eventually, that a component would need to be included into the test, showing
a different connector configuration. Adding a between-series adapter might be an alternative,
but would change the electrical length of the setup. Consequence is then usually to change todifferent test cables, employing the connectors needed, and calibrating the system again.
Or it occurs that a certain test result is doubted, as it is too bad, or too good. Recalibrating thesystem and retesting is usually the only alternative.
THE SOLUTION: The answer is the Cable Assembly using Interchangeable Connectors. A
Primary Connector Unit is fitted to the cable, accepting those Interchangeable Connector
Series. As the Interchangeable Connector Heads have similar electrical performance and areof same electrical length, they can be changed during testing. If the performance of a Connector Head is questionable, it can be exchanged in no time, and the test results can be compared.
A cable assembly can be supplied with the Primary Connector Unit, on one, or both ends. In
no time the Interchangeable Connectors can be put on, as needed for the application. Basic
Connector Units have been developed for the Phase Stable ANA Test Cables of Types 18 and
22, and as well as for a variety of other Test Cables Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is offering, such as the cables of Types 10, 14, 17, 100 and 140.
The Interchangeable Connector Heads are available in most popular connector series, such as
7mm, N, SMA and TNC. All these connector heads of the different connector series are of thesame electrical length (except the short Nf).
SPECIFYING THE CABLE ASSEMBLY: For your Cable Assembly you need to specify
the Type of cable, as listed on page 231 f.f.. You have to decide then about the connector
configuration. You may choose to have the Primary Connector Unit terminated on both ends,
or you may decide to have the Primary Connector Unit for the Interchangeable Connectors
only on one end and a regular connector on the other side. The codes for regular connectors
are listed in The '97 Handbook "Cable Assemblies" on page 174.

Assemblies with Interchangeable Connectors Ordering
Information
INFORMATION ON HOW TO ORDER INTERCHANGEABLE CONNECTORASSEMBLIES: The customer may order only an assembly, instead of ordering the whole Kit
with interchangeable connectors. The table below explains the system and describes the possible
alternatives for composing the part number of the cable assembly.
THE CABLE: The three letters ABC are used to identify the cable by its code. The cable code
does not necessarily have to be of three digits, it also can be two digits only.
THE ARMORING: For strenuous applications or harsh environment, armoring of the cable may
be needed. A variety of armors are available as standard, as outlined in “The ´97 Handbook Cable
Assemblies”. The Customer may replace the D in the part number with the code for the armour
requested, or he may rely on Spectrum's suggestions by replacing the ´D´ with a temporary code´A´. Spectrum will then change that temporary code ´A´ with the appropriate code, describing thearmor recommended. For no armor, a ´Blank´ will be used.
THE LENGTH: The letters EFGH are describing the length of the cable in millimeters, fromreference plane to reference plane of the connectors. For lengths longer than 9999mm (10m), three
digits with a leading ´d´ are used to identify the length in decimeters (dm).
Example: For a cable length of 30 meters the length code will be ´d300´.
THE CONNECTORS: The letters PU stand for ´Primary Unit´. They identify that one end of thecable assembly is terminated with the Primary Connector Unit, as necessary to connect with theInterchangeable Connector Heads. The letters MNO are to be replaced with the two or three digit
code, identifying the connector configuration at the other end of the cable assembly. This end may
be terminated with a standard connector. For that connector code, please refer to The '97 Handbook"Cable Assemblies" page 174. If this end of the cable assembly is supposed to be supplied with a
Push- On Connector, locking or non-locking, please refer to pages 214 f.f. If a Primary Unit forInterchangeable connectors is required, then replace MNO simply by PU.

INFORMATION ON HOW TO ORDER AN INTERCHANGEABLE CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY KIT:
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has set up an easy to use part number system. The customer
can compose his part number, describing completely the kit he is ordering. The table below
explains the system and describes the possible alternatives.
THE KIT: Normally the Cable assembly with Interchangeable Connectors is supplied in an
instrument case, as a Standard Kit, or the Professional Kit. It contains also a number ofInterchangeable Connectors, and a torque wrench. Additional empty spots can be filled withconnector heads on separate order, as needed in the individual application.The letter T identifies
the type of Kit being ordered. Replacing T by S means ordering the Standard Kit, P stands for
the Professional Kit, C is used when a custom compiled Kit is ordered.
THE CABLE: The three letters ABC are used to identify the cable by its code. The cablecode does not necessarily have to be of three digits, it also can be two digits only.
THE ARMORING: For strenuous applications or harsh environment, armoring of the cable
may be needed. A variety of armors are available as standard, as outlined in “The ´97 Handbook
Cable Assemblies”. The Customer may replace the D in the part number with the code for thearmour requested, or he may rely on Spectrums suggestions by replacing the ´D´ with atemporary code ´A´. Spectrum will then change that temporary code ´A´ with the appropriate
code, describing the armor recommended. For no armour, a ´Blank´ will be used.
THE LENGTH: The letters EFGH are describing the length of the cable in millimeters,from reference plane to reference plane of the connectors. For lengths longer than 9999mm(10m), three digits with a leading ´d´ are used to identify the length in decimeters (dm).
Example: for a cable length of 30 meters the length code will be ´d300´.
THE CONNECTORS: Both ends of the assembly will be terminated with the Primary Unit,
as necessary to connect with the Interchangeable Connector Heads. The Interchangeable
Connector Heads are available in most popular connector series, such as 7mm, N, SMA and
TNC. All these connector heads of the different connector series are of the same electricallength (exception: the short Nf).

INTRODUCTION: In various applications, especially with test stations, repetitive testingneeds to take place. Hundreds, or sometimes even thousands of components have to be tested.
Using regular connectors, this means threading on the connector, tightening and torquing,
then loosening and disconnecting. This is a very time consuming process, which in most cases
is even longer than the electrical test cycle. In applications where only a simple “go/no go”
test has to be performed, the time needed for connecting and disconnecting may be ten times
longer than the actual test time.
THE SOLUTION: The Push-On Connectors and Connector Savers were developed to eliminate all the time consuming tightening, torquing and loosening of the connectors during test.
The Push-On connector slides directly onto any standard female connector of the same series,
allowing quick and easy connection and disconnection.
THE LOCKING PUSH-ON: The Push-On connector is a male connector, and looks almost
like a regular male connector, but does not employ thread in the coupling nut, and thecoupling nut does not turn. To connect, the lock nut is only to be pushed forward. Whenreleased, three bolts are locking the connector safely onto the female thread. To disconnect
the lock nut has to be pushed forward again, and kept in that position.
THE NON-LOCKING PUSH-ON: The connector does not contain any locking mechanism. A spring finger outer conductor is holding the connector in place. The forces needed forpushing on / pulling off the connector from its mating connector correspond directly to theinsertion force / withdrawal force of the spring finger outer conductor. The non-locking PushOn is liked at test stations, where short tests are performed, where data are taken while thehand is still on the connector.
CONNECTORS AVAILABLE: 50 Ohms Push-On Connectors are available in series 7/16,
N, SMA and TNC. For 75 Ohms the Push-Ons were designed in series N and F. Some of theconnectors are available in different versions, such as lockable and non lockable, or for the N"Double D" connectors, as being used on test equipment, having flats on two sides in parallel
and along the thread.
CABLE ASSEMBLIES: Cable assemblies can be terminated directly with Push-On Connectors. For certain RG-Cables the customer may purchase the Push-On Connectors and hecan then terminate the assemblies himself using standard tools. Assemblies, using Spectrum's
special cable, are only available completely terminated, as special tooling is required. On
pages 231 - 246 all the cables are listed that can currently be fitted with Push-On connectors.
But please always keep in mind that Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is a very innovative
company. Our engineers are constantly designing new products, or modifying existing products to customers' requests. Therefore, the catalogs never will be complete.
CABLE ASSEMBLY PROCEDURES: For those RG-Cables the customer may purchase
the Push-On Connectors for making his own assembly. Cable assembly procedures are listed
in "The '98 Handbook Quick Connections", or "The '98 Handbook Microwave Connectors".
PUSH-ON ADAPTERS: If you want to use your existing standard cable assemblies, you
can turn them into Assemblies with Push-On Connectors, by using Push-On Adapters. The
standard female of the Push-On Adapter threads into the male connector of your assembly.

Extra Light Weight Assemblies, Phase & Amplitude Matched Cable Assemblies, High Velocity
and Thermal Stable Dielectrics, Delay Lines, etc.
The Connector Group: Designing and manufacturing successfully new Connector Series,
e.g. of Types SBX, SBY and SPM, connectors that were not available at all with the physicaland electrical performance as needed for specific programs.
Adapters for special applications were designed to fit exactly the customers' needs, mechanicallyand electrically.
A whole new Product Line was developed and successfully introduced to the market: the
PUSH-ON Connectors and Adapters for series 3.5mm, K*, SMA, N and TNC, using
50 Ohms impedance, and for F, N and TNC as well, using 75 Ohms impedance.
The Component Group: Besides the Standard Product Lines, Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH
offers Engineering and Manufacturing Services, to design and manufacture Components exactly
to Customer's Specification. Whatever cannot be found in anybody else`s catalog,
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is definitely worthwhile to contact. There is even always apossibility that a similar product has already been designed for somebody else.
The Table to the right shows the areas where Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has successfully
designed and manufactured products to customers' specifications. On pages 356 through399 detailed information will be given on these components.

Quick Response Manufacturing: The Quick Response Manufacturing is another good
example for the commitment to providing excellent Customer Service. The Quick ResponseGroup was implemented to react immediately to customers' needs. Sometimes Products will
be shipped within 24 hours. All Products manufactured in the Quick Response Area will meetthe same Quality Standards as all the other products, they are submitted to the same inspection.

Antennas
INTRODUCTION: Antennas are employed to couple electromagnetic energy between freespace propagation and the energy received or transmitted as a guided wave by a radar system.
Antenna dimensions of several wavelengths may be needed to confine an adequate amount ofenergy.
Application: Most antennas are used to serve as both, transmitters and receivers of microwave systems. Most systems require an antenna that tends to concentrate the transmitted
energy into a small solid angle, or to receive energy from a specific direction.
Antenna Gain: The ability of an antenna to concentrate energy in a particular direction or to
be more sensitive to energy incident from a specific direction is described in terms of theantenna gain. Denoted only as the gain, the exact definition would be the power gain of anantenna, which includes losses associated with the antenna, such as ohmic and RF heating.
Antenna Radiation Pattern: The spatial distribution of energy when plotted on a relativebasis is called the antenna radiation pattern and it is a measure of the power per unit area, also
called the power pattern. When measuring the unit per solid angle in a given direction, it iscalled the radiation intensity pattern.
Average Power Handling: This is the maximum allowable power to which the antenna canbe subjected to without suffering permanent damage.
Connectors: Antennas can be supplied with almost any connector or waveguide configuration,
supposing that frequency range and power level are within the connector/waveguide limits.
Custom Designs: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has been supplying only antennas that aredesigned to special requirements. At the time being the company does not compete withstandard products that are available from various suppliers.
Frequency and Bandwidth: The frequency and bandwidth depend on many parameters, thetype and physical structure, dimensions and materials of the antenna, the gain, beam width,polarization, radome, material, shape, etc.
Operating Temperature Range: The temperature range is usually very wide, especially foroutdoor applications.

VSWR: VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal, when looking into
the antenna from system side. The VSWR for receive and transmit of an antenna may bedifferent.

e:/quickc98/prod&se1.pm6

Polarization: The direction of the polarization is defined as the direction of the electric field
vector. The principal planes of the antenna pattern are associated with a linearly polarizedcomponent of the electric field and are commonly designated as horizontal or verticalpolarizations, so that the antenna patterns are specified as being either horizontal or vertical
patterns. For circular polarization the electric field rotates at a frequency equal to thefrequency of the propagating wave, e.g. right handed when the direction of rotation of theelectric-field vector is clockwise when viewed as a receding wave away from the antenna.

ISM Band Antenna

The Planar Antenna has been designed for OEM - Applications and is operating in the 2.4
GHz Band. The small dimensions and the rugged construction of the device are ideally suited
for all applications regarding Wireless Telecommunication such as LAN, PBXs, PCS, PCN,
Laptops, etc. The unique design utilizes a board construction that allows lowest cost at highvolume. The Antenna can be optimized for any frequency in the ISM band.

INTRODUCTION: Microelectronic products, semiconductor devices, are used in almost
any kind of equipment. These devices may suffer from electronic discharge damage. This canoccur, when a device acquires charge through some turboelectric process and then abruptly
touches grounded objects. Discharge damage also may occur, when charged personnel istouching grounded devices. To avoid the human body discharge, considerable effort has been
made by employing wrist straps, static dissipative flooring, or avoiding human handlingcompletely. But ICs may even already suffer from transportation. Often they are packaged inplastic shipping tubes, made from PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride). Left untreated, the material acts
like a charge generator. PVC must be dipped in antistatic solution, but the coating deteriorates
with age and wear.
CDM MODELLING: In order to find out how safe the semiconductor devices are and whatkind of stress, or electronic discharge the semiconductor products can take, test methods
were needed to be developed. For simulating controlled discharge at semiconductor devices,a special method, the Charged Device Modelling (CDM) became known.
THE CDM SIMULATOR: At a standard charged device modelling simulator the device
under test is placed on dielectric, charged by a power supply and discharged through a 1 Ohm
resistor that serves to sample the discharge current. The process is then monitored via anoscilloscope, connected to a parallel transmission line. The parasitic inductance, associatedwith the 1 Ohm resistor, is critical to the proper operation of the circuit.
THE DISC RESISTOR: The problem of parasitic inductances can be avoided or at least
minimized by its geometrical shape that is most benificial to the circuit. If a disc resistor isused, the current flows radially. By mounting the disc resistor on a coaxial line of same
dimensions a CDM (Charged Device Modelling) test can be performed by simply connecting
the protruding center conductor of the coaxial line with the device that has been charged.
CALIBRATION: For calibration purposes the coaxial probe needs a mating receptacle. It
must connect to a device that accomodates the protruding center conductor of the probe. The
structure of the probe/mating receptacle must maintain a perfect 50 Ohm transmission line,with the only exception of the small area where the 1 Ohm resistor is placed.
THE HARDWARE: Spectrum Elektrotechnk GmbH has designed and manufactured a probethat has a standard SMA female connector at one end, and therefore can easily connect tostandard transmission lines with SMA connectors. The other side of the unit is equipped witha replaceable center conductor and has a narrow cylindrical area for the 1 Ohm resistor. The
replaceable center conductor is of utmost importance, as damages at the center conductor,
resulting from arcing when discharging devices, are unavoidable.
The mating device for calibration purposes accomodates the protruding center conductor of
the probe and maintains a perfect 50 Ohm line, with the exception of the area where the one
Ohm resistor has been placed. The SMA connector at the other end allows again for connection
with standard 50 Ohm transmission lines.
The mounting plate is necessary to accomodate the probe savely in order to mount it on a
positioner for accurate placement in relation to the device to be discharged.
CUSTOM PRODUCTS: The CDM Components are custom products, developed to one
customers' needs. Spectrum Elektrotechnk GmbH is a very innovative company. Our engineers are constantly designing new products, or modifying existing products to customers'
requests. Therefore, our catalogs will never be complete. If you do not find exactly what you
need in our catalogs, or other catalogs, please contact our sales or engineering department.

Custom Connectors/Adapters
INTRODUCTION: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH offers a large variety of standard
Connectors and Adapters, as shown in "The ´97 Handbook Adapters " and " The ´98 Handbook Microwave Connectors ".
In many applications a standard component will not fit perfectly, or maybe it cannot be used
at all. It would be needed a little bit shorter or longer, or narrower, or wider, or would haveto meet special electrical requirements, such as higher power or better return loss, or ....etc,.
Applications: Special Connectors and Adapters are needed in state-of-the-art systems. Thesesystems are following design criteria that are quite different to the standard scheme.
Mechanically they may be more compact, and of lighter weight, therefore cannot use someexisting designs. Electrically these systems are to be of superior performance, therefore they
have to meet specifications that are almost impossible, needing components to be engineered
to excellence, and in detail.
Frequency: The frequency for custom designed connectors and adapters ranges is from DC
to 50.0 GHz. For this frequency range complete test equipment is available.
Connector Types: Besides the connectors, meeting the standard interface specifications,such as MIL-Standards, DIN- or IEC- Specifications, Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbHhas been designing, manufacturing and introducing to the market successfully new Connector
Series of Types SBX, SBY and SPM, connectors that were not available at all with thephysical and electrical performance, as needed for applications in certain programs.
Additionally, a whole new Product Line was designed: the PUSH-ON Connectors andAdapters, being available in 50 Ohms impedance for Series 7/16, SMA, N and TNC. In 75
Ohms impedance PUSH-ON Connectors of styles F and N were developed.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is open for almost any engineering task. If none of the existing
designs can be used, experienced engineering staff is available to develop the component thatwill meet exactly the requirements.

VSWR: VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has designed for several programs connectors and adaptersshowing lowest VSWR. Especially with high power components, reflections are unwanted,
as the reflected power will be transformed into heat, causing even higher temperatures andconsequently limiting the performance, especially when already operating at higher
environmental temperatures.

e:/quickc98/prod&se1.pm6

Operating Temperature Range: The normal operating temperature ranges from -54°C to+115°C. For certain programs however, connectors and adapters were designed, allowing amuch wider environmental temperature range.
Successful performance has been achieved at lowest temperatures of 20 K, in programs where
the components in receivers, used for exploring the universe, are being cooled down to thosetemperatures because of noise level reasons.
In other programs the opposite was needed, environmental temperatures above 200° C. Using
special design techniques and dielectrics, also these requirements were met.

Custom Connectors/Adapters

e:/quickc98/prod&se1.pm6

These special adapters were designed to replace a semi rigid cable of 0.250" diameter. There
was a major problem with the cable assembly: it could not be manufactured with repeatableperformance, as the cable is quite big in diameter for its short length, therefore difficult tobend. Soldering connectors to such a short assembly is extremely difficult in addition. Using
newest complex CNC machinery the outer conductor of the replacing mitre angled adapter
was machined in one piece. Designing and developing components using state-of-the-art
manufacturing features, results in outstanding mechanical designs with superior electricalperformance at higher frequencies.

The special connector above was developed to hook up directly to an aerial, a long whip
antenna, as used on radio equipment of vehicles. For achieving superior electrical performance, it incorporates a matching circuit in the connector body. A special quick connection/
disconnection mechanism was developed for this special unit.

INTRODUCTION: In various applications it is necessary to connect and disconnect several
microwave links. This may happen when testing high frequency systems: four,.... eight, oreven more microwave cables need to be connected.
But not only test stations need the connection of several coaxial high frequency cable
assemblies. Helicopters and other aircrafts are equipped with equipment that is needed during
flight and normally then taken out again after the completed mission.
Using cable assemblies that are terminated with regular connectors, this means threading on
the connectors, tightening and torquing, then later loosening and disconnecting again. This isa very time consuming process, which in some cases may even be longer than the test cycle. In
any case valuable time is waisted by making connections and disconnections.
THE SOLUTION: Spectrum's new 'SQ-8' Multipin connector incorporates EIGHT NEW
GENERATION precision microwave connectors. The advantage of being able to connect
and disconnect eight microwave links simultaneously is one of its major benefits. The 'SQ-8'
is blind mating and automatically locks the individual links into place by using a standard
housing per MIL-C-38999, series III, shell size 21. The need for a torque wrench, and the
difficulties sometimes experienced with mating miniature connectors in confined space, iseliminated.
FIELD REPLACEABLE ASSEMBLIES: Although designed and constructued with reliability and performance foremost in mind, every individual microwave assembly within thecomponent is field replaceable. Everyone of these cable assemblies can be exchanged or
replaced in minimum time, by the simple task of engaging or disengaging a bayonet catch.
Should one of the assemblies used in the ´SQ-8´ get physically damaged, it can be replaced inno time.
When using the 'SQ-8' Multipin Connector, the design, manufacture, and servicing of RF andmicrowave systems and test equipments is made infinitely easier. Electrically, the individual
RF connector inserts offer an excellent performance, and are comparable, and in some cases
better than those exhibited by standard microwave connectors.
THE CABLES: The 'SQ-8' Multipin Connector is available for Spectrum´s Type 43 cablewith normal deliveries. Additional designs have been completed to accommodate a variety ofother cable types. These include cable diameters from 3mm to 5mm, from ultra flexible toextremely rugged, electrically phase stable and very low loss. ´SQ-8´ Connectors for thosecables will become available upon demand. Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is a very
innovative company, engineering products exactly to the customers’ needs.
FUTURE DESIGNS: The 'SQ-8' may be the fore runner of a series of NEW MULTIPIN
CONNECTOR developments. Other choices of outer body shell styling with different number of microwave inserts may become of interest in certain applications. Frequencies up to
50.0 GHz, and above, with combinations of RF-Inserts and regular pins will be engineered
and made available, as they become necessary. Shell sizes, other than offered currently may beneeded, or shells to newer configurations can be designed and engineered exactly to thecustomers’ requirements.

THE INTERFACES: When you have eight microwave connections per interface, it has to
be ensured that all the connectors are self aligning easily. This guarantees that the connection
is made successfully, each time, without the need for additional force during mating. The maleinserts at the SQ-8 are designed to be recessed below the reference plane of the SQ-8. Thus
the center pins of the inserts are well protected. The outer conductor of the female insert does
protrude above the reference plane of the SQ-8. During the mating process the female outerconductor will catch first the mating plane, align automatically all eight female outerconductors prior to capturing the male outer conductors, aligning them, before the center
conductors will meet.
THE INSERTS: All the inserts, used in the SQ-8, are spring loaded for blind mating/selfalignment purposes, and they are equipped with a bayonet catch. Therefore every cable
assembly can be replaced in minimum time by simply engaging/disengaging the bayonet catch.

INTRODUCTION: To manufacture superior products, well educated and trained personnel, state-of-the-art machines and proper and well engineered tooling are necessities. This
ensures quality products and competitive pricing. Therefore most of the products are built incompanies, specializing in the different product categories.
Cable assemblies are necessary for signal routing between components within a system. Not
all of these cable assemblies can be manufactured and then installed in the systems. In some
applications the connector is too big in diameter to fit through the slots, the cable has to bepulled through. In those cases the cable has to be terminated with the connector after thecable is put in place. Other examples are laboratories where certain cable assemblies are to be
replaced or repaired immediately, etc. For those applications Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbHis offering a number of tools. But it cannot be expected that these manually used tools are as
good as the machines used for the manufacturing of superior cable assemblies at the Cable
Assembly Division of Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH.
Besides the adequate manufacturing tools, also a number of important test tools are needed,
to ensure proper manufacturing and repeatable testing.
CABLE TRIMMING TOOLS: They are used to cut interfaces at semi rigid cables. Others
are engineered to cut interfaces at the flexible cable assemblies.
CRIMPING TOOLS: Instead of soldering, center contacts and outer conductors can be
crimped. The pliers for crimping the center contacts and the pliers used for the outerconductors are different, as much higher pressure is needed for the outer conductors. A variety of inserts can be supplied, as needed for the different cables.
CONNECTOR INTERFACE GAUGES: Connector gauges are needed for measuring thecritical interface dimensions of coaxial connectors. These connector gauges consist of anespecially adapted dial indicator with appropriate bushings and pins that are designed to matewith the specific connector under test. The indicator of each gauge is zero set by a specificmaster gauge.When engaged to a connector, it measures the specific interface dimension
from a specific reference plane. For every dimension of interest, a special gauge is offered.
This gives the most accurate results, allows easy calibration, fast and comfortable testing andit helps to avoid mistakes.
TORQUE WRENCHES: For proper test results and long life of the connectors the rules
need to be obeyed. For each individual connector series a torque has been specified, a torquethat ensures proper mating conditions, repeatable electrical performance and guarantees
mechanically a long life of the connectors. Using a Torque Wrench guarantees that theconnection is not too loose, it also ensures that the connection is not too tight, preventing
possible connector damage and impaired electrical performance. Using the Torque Wrenchalso assures that all connections are equally tight, each time.
THREAD LIMIT GAUGES: It is almost a necessity to check the thread of connectors andadapters. Out of limits thread can create serious problems and may damage the connectors ofmating components or ruin the connectors at test equipment. Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH
offers a comprehensive line of thread limit gauges to check the thread on a “GO” / “NO GO” basis.

INTRODUCTION: Connectors have to be mated and need to be tightened. Some people doit by hand, some use a regular wrench, some use a Torque Wrench.
TIGHTENING BY HAND: People who are using nothing but their fingers for tightening,
usually undertorque. The electrical performance will vary from tightening to tightening, depending how tired the fingers are. In addition: If the same component is tested several times
and by different people using only their fingers for tightening, the electrical performance will
even vary more, as different torque will be applied, equivalent to the strength of the individual. But strength does not only depend on the physical ability of the individual, but also
one’s perception of what constitutes proper torque. Tightening connectors by hand will result
from very loose fits to almost correct fits, but usually always incorrect fits. Tightening connectors by hand is obviously inadequate and not recommendable.
USING A REGULAR WRENCH: The ones who are using a regular wrench, usually
overtorque. Short wrenches may lead to torsional forces that are only a little high, the use of
longer wrenches however usually results into applying very high torsion. Overtorquing of up
to three times has been seen. This will deform the interface of the connectors, proper test
results from then on cannot be obtained anymore.
USING THE TORQUE WRENCH: For proper test results and long life of the connectors
the rules need to be obeyed. For each individual connector series a torque has been specified,a torque that ensures proper mating conditions, repeatable electrical performance and guarantees mechanically a long life of the connectors. Using the Torque Wrench guarantees thatthe connection is not too loose, it also ensures that the connection is not too tight, preventing
possible connector damage and impaired electrical performance. Using the Torque Wrenchalso assures that all connections are equally tight, each time.
OPERATING THE TORQUE WRENCH: Hold the Torque Wrench always at the same
point near the end of the handle. Apply force perpendicular to the Wrench, in a plane parallelto the outer conductor mating planes of the connectors. Rotate the connector nut only whentightening the connector. Use an open-end wrench to keep the body of the mating connector
from turning, if it is not a fixed test port connector. Position the wrenches within 90° of eachother before applying force.
Avoid pivoting the Wrench on your thumb or other fingers, and do not twist the Wrench
relative to the outer conductors mating plane of the connectors. This would result into applying an additional and unknown amount of torque to the connection.
DIFFERENT TORQUE WRENCHES: Spectrum Electrotechnik GmbH manufactures two
different types of Torque Wrenches for most of the connector series:
The Wrench with only the Break Point: The Wrench is employing a “Break Point”, when
the specific torque has been reached. But having heard and felt the Break, a further torquing
would be possible. This Wrench has been designed for people that are sensitive and very
conscientious (Torque Wrenches are Series: WE-D.....).
The Torque Wrench that breaks completely: For the smaller connector series that cansuffer most from overtorquing, this Wrench has been designed that “Fully Breaks”. After the
Break Point has been reached, it almost moves freely in an angle of 90° (Series WE-B.....).

Connector Interface Gauges
INTRODUCTION: Testing the interfaces of connectors and adapters upon incoming
inspection is not only highly recommended, it is definitely a necessity. Interfaces not meeting
specification will not only lead to degraded specification of the components, furthermore,these out of specification interfaces may damage the connectors of mating components orruin the connectors of test equipment.
CHECKING THE INTERFACE: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH manufactures acomprehensive line of connector gauges for measuring the critical interface dimensions ofcoaxial connectors. These connector gauges consist of an especially adapted dial indicatorwith appropriate bushings and pins that are designed to mate with the specific connector
under test. The indicator of each gauge is zero set by a specific master gauge. When engaged
to a connector, it measures the specific interface dimension from a specific reference plane.
For every dimension of interest, a special gauge will be offered. This gives the most accurate
results, allows easy calibration, fast testing and helps to avoid mistakes.
RESOLUTION: A number of gauges are available. The models are shown to the right. The
main difference between these four types of gauges is the different resolution as well as theunits of measurement: inches or metric. Only the digital gauges can be switched from metricto inch and vice versa.
“HAND-HELD” VERSUS “THREAD-ON”: Most Gauges shown are available as “HandHeld” or “Thread-On”. The faster testing is possible by using the “Hand-Held” gauges, themore accurate readings will be achieved from the “Thread-On” gauges, as threading on thegauges will perfectly align them with the connector. Hand-Held means aligning gauge andconnector freely, which may allow for mistakes.

USING CONNECTOR GAUGES: Select the correct gauge for the connector under test.
Inspect the gauge and the appropriate calibration block (master) and make sure that both arein good condition and clean. (Dirt on the gauge or the master will lead to inaccurate measurements and can transfer dirt to the connectors and damage them during gauging). Attach thecalibration block carefully to the gauge. Zero the gauge by moving the dial until the gauge
pointer reads zero. To verify that the setting is correct and repeatable, remove the calibration
block and then attach it a second time.
When testing the connectors, make sure that they are not damaged and clean. When using
the “Thread-On” gauges, tighten the connection with the appropriate Torque Wrench only.

INTERFACE DIMENSIONS: Complete interface dimensions are shown in section VII.4. ofthe " '98 Handbook Test Necessities & Accessories ". The important measurements are marked
clearly for every connector series:Dimensions, highlighted in an oval shape,
are recommended for verification as a minimum. The connector gauges mea
suring these dimensions are included in the Expanded Calibration Kit and theProfessional Kit as well.
Dimensions, highlighted in a rectangular block are recommended for verification in addition to the dimensions highlighted in an oval shape. Checking allthese dimensions will guarantee optimum performance of the connectors. The necessary connector gauges to measure all those dimensions are included in the Professional Calibration Kit only.

SMP "Bullet" Removal/Installation Tool
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has
introduced the WE - 6313, an all new tool
for removing or installing the "bullets" usedin its subminiature push-on SMP series ofconnectors.

Because of their small size, SMP bullets canbe particularly difficult to remove once they
are mated with other SMP family components.

By rotating the stainless steel tool's
handle clockwise its jaws can be opened
to accept or release the part. Rotate thehandle counterclockwise and jaws close
to grasp the bullet.

Antennas
INTRODUCTION: Antennas are employed to couple electromagnetic energy between freespace propagation and the energy received or transmitted as a guided wave by a radar system.
Antenna dimensions of several wavelengths may be needed to confine an adequate amount ofenergy.
Application: Most antennas are used to serve as both, transmitters and receivers of microwave systems. Most systems require an antenna that tends to concentrate the transmitted
energy into a small solid angle, or to receive energy from a specific direction.
Antenna Gain: The ability of an antenna to concentrate energy in a particular direction or to
be more sensitive to energy incident from a specific direction is described in terms of theantenna gain. Denoted only as the gain, the exact definition would be the power gain of anantenna, which includes losses associated with the antenna, such as ohmic and RF heating.
Antenna Radiation Pattern: The spatial distribution of energy when plotted on a relativebasis is called the antenna radiation pattern and it is a measure of the power per unit area, also
called the power pattern. When measuring the unit per solid angle in a given direction, it iscalled the radiation intensity pattern.
Average Power Handling: This is the maximum allowable power to which the antenna canbe subjected to without suffering permanent damage.
Connectors: Antennas can be supplied with almost any connector or waveguide configuration,
supposing that frequency range and power level are within the connector/waveguide limits.
Custom Designs: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has been supplying only antennas that aredesigned to special requirements. At the time being the company does not compete withstandard products that are available from various suppliers.
Frequency and Bandwidth: The frequency and bandwidth depend on many parameters, thetype and physical structure, dimensions and materials of the antenna, the gain, beam width,polarization, radome, material, shape, etc.
Operating Temperature Range: The temperature range is usually very wide, especially foroutdoor applications.

VSWR: VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal, when looking into
the antenna from system side. The VSWR for receive and transmit of an antenna may bedifferent.

e:/quickc98/prod&se1.pm6

Polarization: The direction of the polarization is defined as the direction of the electric field
vector. The principal planes of the antenna pattern are associated with a linearly polarizedcomponent of the electric field and are commonly designated as horizontal or verticalpolarizations, so that the antenna patterns are specified as being either horizontal or vertical
patterns. For circular polarization the electric field rotates at a frequency equal to thefrequency of the propagating wave, e.g. right handed when the direction of rotation of theelectric-field vector is clockwise when viewed as a receding wave away from the antenna.

ISM Band Antenna

The Planar Antenna has been designed for OEM - Applications and is operating in the 2.4
GHz Band. The small dimensions and the rugged construction of the device are ideally suited
for all applications regarding Wireless Telecommunication such as LAN, PBXs, PCS, PCN,
Laptops, etc. The unique design utilizes a board construction that allows lowest cost at highvolume. The Antenna can be optimized for any frequency in the ISM band.

INTRODUCTION: Microelectronic products, semiconductor devices, are used in almost
any kind of equipment. These devices may suffer from electronic discharge damage. This canoccur, when a device acquires charge through some turboelectric process and then abruptly
touches grounded objects. Discharge damage also may occur, when charged personnel istouching grounded devices. To avoid the human body discharge, considerable effort has been
made by employing wrist straps, static dissipative flooring, or avoiding human handlingcompletely. But ICs may even already suffer from transportation. Often they are packaged inplastic shipping tubes, made from PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride). Left untreated, the material acts
like a charge generator. PVC must be dipped in antistatic solution, but the coating deteriorates
with age and wear.
CDM MODELLING: In order to find out how safe the semiconductor devices are and whatkind of stress, or electronic discharge the semiconductor products can take, test methods
were needed to be developed. For simulating controlled discharge at semiconductor devices,a special method, the Charged Device Modelling (CDM) became known.
THE CDM SIMULATOR: At a standard charged device modelling simulator the device
under test is placed on dielectric, charged by a power supply and discharged through a 1 Ohm
resistor that serves to sample the discharge current. The process is then monitored via anoscilloscope, connected to a parallel transmission line. The parasitic inductance, associatedwith the 1 Ohm resistor, is critical to the proper operation of the circuit.
THE DISC RESISTOR: The problem of parasitic inductances can be avoided or at least
minimized by its geometrical shape that is most benificial to the circuit. If a disc resistor isused, the current flows radially. By mounting the disc resistor on a coaxial line of same
dimensions a CDM (Charged Device Modelling) test can be performed by simply connecting
the protruding center conductor of the coaxial line with the device that has been charged.
CALIBRATION: For calibration purposes the coaxial probe needs a mating receptacle. It
must connect to a device that accomodates the protruding center conductor of the probe. The
structure of the probe/mating receptacle must maintain a perfect 50 Ohm transmission line,with the only exception of the small area where the 1 Ohm resistor is placed.
THE HARDWARE: Spectrum Elektrotechnk GmbH has designed and manufactured a probethat has a standard SMA female connector at one end, and therefore can easily connect tostandard transmission lines with SMA connectors. The other side of the unit is equipped witha replaceable center conductor and has a narrow cylindrical area for the 1 Ohm resistor. The
replaceable center conductor is of utmost importance, as damages at the center conductor,
resulting from arcing when discharging devices, are unavoidable.
The mating device for calibration purposes accomodates the protruding center conductor of
the probe and maintains a perfect 50 Ohm line, with the exception of the area where the one
Ohm resistor has been placed. The SMA connector at the other end allows again for connection
with standard 50 Ohm transmission lines.
The mounting plate is necessary to accomodate the probe savely in order to mount it on a
positioner for accurate placement in relation to the device to be discharged.
CUSTOM PRODUCTS: The CDM Components are custom products, developed to one
customers' needs. Spectrum Elektrotechnk GmbH is a very innovative company. Our engineers are constantly designing new products, or modifying existing products to customers'
requests. Therefore, our catalogs will never be complete. If you do not find exactly what you
need in our catalogs, or other catalogs, please contact our sales or engineering department.

Custom Connectors/Adapters
INTRODUCTION: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH offers a large variety of standard
Connectors and Adapters, as shown in "The ´97 Handbook Adapters " and " The ´98 Handbook Microwave Connectors ".
In many applications a standard component will not fit perfectly, or maybe it cannot be used
at all. It would be needed a little bit shorter or longer, or narrower, or wider, or would haveto meet special electrical requirements, such as higher power or better return loss, or ....etc,.
Applications: Special Connectors and Adapters are needed in state-of-the-art systems. Thesesystems are following design criteria that are quite different to the standard scheme.
Mechanically they may be more compact, and of lighter weight, therefore cannot use someexisting designs. Electrically these systems are to be of superior performance, therefore they
have to meet specifications that are almost impossible, needing components to be engineered
to excellence, and in detail.
Frequency: The frequency for custom designed connectors and adapters ranges is from DC
to 50.0 GHz. For this frequency range complete test equipment is available.
Connector Types: Besides the connectors, meeting the standard interface specifications,such as MIL-Standards, DIN- or IEC- Specifications, Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbHhas been designing, manufacturing and introducing to the market successfully new Connector
Series of Types SBX, SBY and SPM, connectors that were not available at all with thephysical and electrical performance, as needed for applications in certain programs.
Additionally, a whole new Product Line was designed: the PUSH-ON Connectors andAdapters, being available in 50 Ohms impedance for Series 7/16, SMA, N and TNC. In 75
Ohms impedance PUSH-ON Connectors of styles F and N were developed.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is open for almost any engineering task. If none of the existing
designs can be used, experienced engineering staff is available to develop the component thatwill meet exactly the requirements.

VSWR: VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has designed for several programs connectors and adaptersshowing lowest VSWR. Especially with high power components, reflections are unwanted,
as the reflected power will be transformed into heat, causing even higher temperatures andconsequently limiting the performance, especially when already operating at higher
environmental temperatures.

Operating Temperature Range: The normal operating temperature ranges from -54°C to+115°C. For certain programs however, connectors and adapters were designed, allowing amuch wider environmental temperature range.
Successful performance has been achieved at lowest temperatures of 20 K, in programs where
the components in receivers, used for exploring the universe, are being cooled down to thosetemperatures because of noise level reasons.
In other programs the opposite was needed, environmental temperatures above 200° C. Using
special design techniques and dielectrics, also these requirements were met.

Custom Connectors/Adapters

e:/quickc98/prod&se1.pm6

These special adapters were designed to replace a semi rigid cable of 0.250" diameter. There
was a major problem with the cable assembly: it could not be manufactured with repeatableperformance, as the cable is quite big in diameter for its short length, therefore difficult tobend. Soldering connectors to such a short assembly is extremely difficult in addition. Using
newest complex CNC machinery the outer conductor of the replacing mitre angled adapter
was machined in one piece. Designing and developing components using state-of-the-art
manufacturing features, results in outstanding mechanical designs with superior electricalperformance at higher frequencies.

The special connector above was developed to hook up directly to an aerial, a long whip
antenna, as used on radio equipment of vehicles. For achieving superior electrical performance, it incorporates a matching circuit in the connector body. A special quick connection/
disconnection mechanism was developed for this special unit.

Delay Lines
Microwave delay devices are designed and manufactured to meet delay requirements infrequency ranges from UHF through KA-Band. Several techniques are used to achieve thedelays. It is the responsibility of the design engineer to decide about the best method fordelaying the signals in his particular application. The decision depends on the frequency range,
the delay needed, the VSWR, the suppression of undesired signals, the size of the device andits form, and last but not least the price of the device will be an important factor.
The coaxial delay line is the classical device. The length of the delay line can easily be calculated
from the propagation delay of the signal within the coaxial cable and the delay needed. Other
advantages are the good electrical performance of the professional delay line, the usually fast
availability and the attractive price. Disadvantages are in some cases the large size and thehigh insertion loss, especially for longer delays at higher frequencies.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH offers a wide variety of coaxial delay lines. All the designs
use Semi-Rigid Cable, from very small diameters, such as 0.047" up to diameters of 0.250",
for certain applications even bigger. The Semi-Rigid Cables are using either Solid Dielectric,or Low Density Dielectric. The advantage of the Low Density Dielectric is lower insertion
loss, a wider temperature range and better performance over temperature.
All Delay Lines are made to the customer specifications: a specific delay that is needed in theapplications, a minimum attenuation, a maximum return loss, a minimum change overtemperature, a certain mechanical configuration and for an environment that often only allows
the best.

Delay Lines Packaging Options
The delay line can be packaged in a number of different ways, such as:

An especially designed housing: It can be made of any kind of material, althoughmostly used is excavated aluminum.
19" Rack Mounting: This is common for larger delay lines, or for applications inlaboratories or test sets.
Spool Mounting: This is an economical way of packaging, using a spool as
supporting and mounting fixture.
Free Coils: This is definitely the most inexpensive packaging, winding the delay line
in a free coil and then using either tape, plastic or stainless steel ties, or just solder,to hold the delay line together.

Detectors
INTRODUCTION: Detectors are needed to monitor power levels of microwave signals or
to identify modulation wave shapes, using one of three different semiconductor types: Tunnel
Diodes, Biased Schottky Diodes and Zero Bias Schottky Diodes.
Tunnel Diode Detectors: Excellent sensitivity at zero bias, good VSWR and flat responseover multi-octave bands can be named to describe the semiconductor. Tunnel detectors are
preferred for CW and pulse detection at higher pulse repetition rate. They are suitable fornarrow and fast pulse processing, have excellent temperature stability and are ideal for DC
coupled applications. They are also in used in DLVAs (direct log video amplifiers).
Schottky Detectors: These devices have excellent sensitivity at optimum bias, and operate in an
extended dynamic range of 20 dBm. They show moderate temperature stability and they are
typically used for power monitoring and threshold circuits, as with AC coupled DLVAs as well.
Zero Bias Schottky Detectors: They do have good sensitivity at zero bias with an extended
dynamic range. Zero Bias Schottky Detectors are very suitable for applications in powermonitoring applications and in instrumentation as well.
Applications: Detectors are needed during monitoring, test and measurement, they also canbe integrated in components and they are used in systems applications as well.
Connectors: Detectors are available with a large variety of connectors, meeting theappropriate standard interface specifications, such as MIL-Standards, DIN- or IECSpecifications, etc.
Custom Designs: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has been designing and supplying special
detectors to suit particular requirements in flatness, sensitivity, leakage, lower output capacitance,mechanical outline, mounting, special connector requirements, rough environment, etc., etc.
Dynamic Range: It covers the input power range from the minimum power, which isdefined by the TSS, and the maximum power, which will cause the diode to burn out.
Frequency and Bandwidth: The detectors of Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH are designed
to operate in frequency ranges of 500 MHz to 26.5 GHz. For certain applications, units may
be tuned for certain criteria in narrower bands.
Flatness: The logarithmic ratio of the maximum
Flatness (dB) = 10 Log (Umax/Umin)to the minimum output voltage of the detector
with constant input power over the whole specified frequency range is called the Flatness.

Operating Temperature Range: The temperature range applies from -54°C to +115°C for
Schottky Detectors and -54°C to +125°C for Tunnel Detectors. Storage temperature will be-54°C to +125°C for all devices.

K Factor: The min. ratio of output voltage versus the RF input power is specified as the
Output Voltage Sensitivity. Measured is the output voltage at an open circuit with a known
RF input power.

Detectors
Output Voltage Sensitivity: The ratio of output voltage versus the RF input power is specified
as the Output Voltage Sensitivity. Measured is the output voltage at an open circuit with aknown RF input power.
Peak Power Handling: This is the maximum allowable Peak power to which the unit can be
subjected to without suffering permanent damage, or without changing permanently the
specified characteristics of the device. Regular Tunnel detectors can usually withstand a CW
power of 17 dBm, Schottky detectors 20 dBm.
Polarity: In general detectors can be supplied with positive video output and with negative
video output as well.
Square Law Range: The range where the video output power remains proportional to thesquare of the input signal power.
Survival Power: This is the maximum allowable peak power at 25°C, 1 microsecond pulse
and 0.1% duty to which the unit can be subjected to without suffering permanent damage.
TSS: Tangential Signal Sensitivity is the amount of power required to produce an output
pulse of an amplitude, which is sufficient to raise the noise fluctuation by an amount equal tothe average noise level.
VSWR: The Voltage Standing Wave Ratio is measured at the signal input port of the detector.
Video Bandwidth: This is the bandwidth of the video modulated signal.
Video Capacitance: The capacitance, which can be measured in parallel to the video outputof the detector.

e:/quickc98/prod&se2.pm6

Video Resistance: The resistance which can be measured at the video output of the detector.

Directional Couplers
INTRODUCTION: Directional Couplers are Four Port devices. The design uses the coupling
between two transmission lines. The distance between the main line where the energy is
propagating through, and the coupling arm is a function of the energy coupled. All ports ofthe couplers are matched to 50 Ohms impedance.
Theoretically, the Power transmitted into port
J1 is partially coupled into port J3. At port J2 theCoupled
Isolatedremaining power will be received. In reality
Port J3
Port J4
however, the components behave differently:
Coupled Arm
Injected Power into port J1, minus Coupled
Power at Port J3, minus Insertion Loss of the
Main
Line
Input J1
Output J2 Circuit, minus power reflected into port J4, equals
the Output Power at port J2. An ideal coupler,would not receive power at port J4.
Main Line: The RF-Circuit between the input and output ports is called the Main Line.
Coupled Line: The transmission line into which the main signal is coupled, is called the
Coupled Line. Normally one port of the coupled line is terminated with a 50 Ohms load.
Frequency: The Coupling Characteristics are limited over finite frequency bands. Using creativeideas, Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has designed Directional Couplers for higher power
applications, operating over wider frequency ranges of more than one octave.
Coupling: The coupled power can be 40 dB below the power introduced into the main arm,
depending on the specification. It varies withfrequency at a limited amount. But the variation, Coupling (dB) = -10 Log (P3/P1)
or ripples can usually be optimized very well.
Insertion Loss: Every transmission line will cause loss, as energy will be dissipating into thecircuit. A good design will offer good trade off Insertion Loss (dB) = -10 Log (1-P3/P1)
between size of the component and its loss.
Directivity: The power ratio between isolated port and coupled port is called Directivity.
Ideal would be no power at Port 4, resulting in
infinite Directivity, but in actual the isolated Directivity (dB) = -10 Log (P4/P3)
port never will become completely power free.
Isolation: The power ratio between port 4 Isolation (dB) = -10 Log (P4/P1)

VSWR: Every microwave component shows reflections and discontinuities within the circuit,as no design can be perfect, and manufacturing tolerances do not allow perfect designs anyway.
coupled port reduces the directivity by an
Return Loss(dB)=-10Log((VSWR-1)/(VSWR+1))2
amount, equal to the return loss of the mismatches.

and port 1 is called Isolation. Isolation is also
another term to measure reflections into port 4. Isolation(dB)=Coupling(dB)+Directivity(dB)e:/quickc98/prod&se2.pm6

INTRODUCTION: Impedance Transformers are passive linear coaxial components used totransform 50 Ohms impedance levels to 75 Ohms impedance levels or vice versa.
Application: Impedance Transformers are mainly used to connect components andmeasurement systems of different impedances. Signal sources and test systems using 50 Ohms
impedances are mostly used. Some test systems may even be only available with 50 Ohms
impedance. Employing an Impedance Transformer means that these 50 Ohms systems can beused for testing 75 Ohms components.
Resistance Network Impedance Transformers: These components are using a resistor network to transform from 75 Ohms to 50 Ohms or vice versa. As the resistors need to be small
for integration into the coaxial circuit, and because of little reflections, the component is only
specified for low power, normally 0.5 Watts, or even less. The operating frequency is only toa few hundred MHz, e.g. DC to 200 MHz. The insertion loss is high. Often the component isdesigned to have a voltage insertion loss of 10 dB.
Multiple Quarterwave Impedance Transformers: The unit consists of multiple sections ofquaterwave length, properly cascaded for optimum performance and broad band properties.
The operating bandwidths may be to 3.0 GHz with a max. insertion loss of 5 dB, an average
power of 2 Watts and a peak power of 2 KW.
Inductive Impedance Transformers: These components consist of two windings, linked by
a mutual magnetic field. The relationship between impedance of input and output depends on
the ratio of the number of windings between primary and secondary coil. These components
have low loss, but are only usable at lower frequencies. Normally the design is not used at all
in coaxial Impedance Transformers.
Average Power Handling: This is the maximum allowable CW power to which the unit canbe subjected to without suffering permanent damage.
Connectors: Impedance Transformers can be fitted with a number of connector styles. Of
special interest are: N(50 Ohms) to N(75 Ohms), BNC(50 Ohms) to BNC(75 Ohms), TNC(50Ohms) to TNC(75 Ohms), and 1.8/5.6 to 1.6/5.6. For special applications also units can beoffered with different connector styles at the input and output.
Custom Designs: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has been designing and supplying special
Impedance Transformers to suit particular requirements, such as certain bandwidths, uniquemechanical outline, unusual mounting or special connector requirements, etc., etc.
Frequency and Bandwidth: As 75 Ohms systems are usually designed to operate at lower
frequencies, there seems to be no need for Impedance Transformers operating at higher
frequencies. Depending on the designs, Impedance Transformers may operate up to a few
hundred MHz, only some are designed for frequencies to 3.0 GHz.
High Reliability Components: Impedance Transformers can also be supplied to Customers
High Reliability Specifications, environmental, military or governmental requirements, and/or
to customer test procedures.
Impedance Transformers for other impedances: Basically a unit for any impedance
transformation needed, can be designed. Depending on the operating frequency and bandwidth,
the appropriate design will be chosen for low development cost.

Insertion Loss: This is the amount of power lost through the Impedance Transformer undermatched conditions.
One dB Bandwidth: This is the frequency range over which the insertion loss variation isless than 1 dB, referenced to the midband insertion loss.
Operating Temperature Range: The temperature ranges from -54°C to +125°C, or evenwider, depending on the application.

Peak Power Handling: This is the maximum allowable power to which the unit can be
subjected to without suffering permanent damage, or without changing permanently the
specified characteristics of the device. The peak power is transmitted at a certain pulse widthand pulse repetition rate.
Standard Products: Although a number of products have been supplied to customers' orders,a standard product line on Impedance Transformers has not been designed yet. But there is apossibility that the product required has been designed already or that a design, very close to
the requirement exists. Therefore please check your requirements with our sales force, or our
engineering staff.
VSWR: VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal. It is desired that the
Impedance Transformers have little reflections. In reality, the units will show some reflections
and discontinuities within the circuit, as no design is perfect, and manufacturing tolerances do
not allow perfect designs anyway.

Isolators & Circulators
INTRODUCTION: Isolators and Circulators are usually three port devices, and they areused to force the microwave energy into one direction only. The typical junction Circulator
consists of a stripline circuit, sandwiched between two ferrite discs or triangles, an upper anda lower ground plane, magnetically biased by permanent magnets located outside the groundplanes. In a Circulator, the magnetic field, applied through the vertical axis of the assembly,
results into a circulation of the microwave energy from one port to the other, depending on
where the energy is coming from.
Microwave energy entering the device from port J1 is directed
Port J3
to port J2. Energy entering from port J2,is directed to port J3.
Signals entering from port J3, are directed to port J1, etc. If
one of the ports is terminated into a 50 Ohms load, the device
becomes an Isolator. Signals then only can pass the unit withlow loss in one direction, and only with high loss in the reverse
direction. If e.g. port J3 is terminated into a 50 Ohms line,
microwave energy only can pass the device with low loss fromPort J1
Port J2
port J1 to port J2. An Isolator is used to "isolate" microwave
components from each other, or to protect units from receiving damages when working into
an open or short circuit. The output of an oscillator is usually protected by an isolator.
Frequency and Bandwidth: Coaxial and microstrip circulators and isolators operate either
in the bias region above resonance or below resonance. Above-resonance circuits are usuallyused for smaller bandwidths and higher power designs, while below-resonance circuits achieve
wider bandwidths. Theoretically, the above-resonance circuits have no lower frequency limit.
Operating Temperature: The performance depends on the magnetic field, applied to saturate
the ferrite material. Temperature compensated magnets and ferrites need to be used wherewide temperature ranges are required. Internal heaters can be installed, where temperature
range and ferrite material do not allow other compensation.

Four Port Devices: Four Port Circulators and Isolators are used where higher directivity isneeded. An Isolator would have the ports J3 andPort J4
Port J3J4 terminated. In the schematic to the left,
microwave energy is forced from port J1 to J2,
or from port J3 to port J4, when crossing two
ferrite junctions. The high isolation only applies
when two ferrite junctions have been crossed, here
between ports J2 and J1 with ports J3 and J4
Port J1
Port J2 terminated with matched loads.

e:/quickc98/prod&se2.pm6

Input VSWR: The input VSWR is a function of the VSWR of the other ports. At an isolator
the higher output VSWR will cause reflected energy towards the terminated port, where it
will be attenuated by the value of the isolation, and the balance is reflected back to the input,
increasing the input VSWR.

INTRODUCTION: Lightning has potential damaging effects on electronic equipment.
Therefore modern equipment usually incorporates surge suppressors in the RF path in orderto protect the equipment.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has developed several types of lightning surge suppressors.
They were engineered especially for the cellular communications industry. The designs areusually employing in the connector or the adapter a built-in fuse. But it has to be noted thatthe surge suppressor needs maintenance and replacement as soon as it has done its job ofprotection.
Another method for protecting the circuits against lightning, is the use of quarter wave stubdevices. They have the advantage of being maintenance free, offer high attenuation andeffectively a short circuit to incoming pulses outside the operating frequency. On the other
hand they have the big disadvantage of needing to be tuned by the stub length to the center
frequency, the equipment is working at, and have an operating bandwidth which is very
narrow and usually only in the range of only +/- 70 MHz around the center frequency.
Application: Not protecting equipment against lightning strikes and allowing the energy ofthe surge to enter the equipment is a quite dangerous practice and usually ends up in
destroyed equipment.
Lightning surge suppressing devices are therefore likely to be found in most applications,especially when modern systems are being designed. The protection of the equipment ofcellular communication base station, connected directly with the antenna is one of the mostimportant criteria.
Good applications for surge suppressors are also the protection of transceivers of radios onvehicles. The arc suppression device is usually built into the input connector at the long whip
antenna.
Connectors: Surge Suppression devices are available with a large variety of connectors,
such as 7/16, HN, N, SMA, etc., meeting the appropriate standard interface specifications,such as MIL-Standards, DIN- or IEC- Specifications.
Custom Designs: Designs have been made to suit particular specifications, such as uniquemechanical outline, unusual mounting, special electrical requirements, rough environment,
etc., etc. Experienced engineers are available and they are interested to hear about the systemneeds and they are eager to offer solutions that meet exactly the requirements needed in theapplication.
Frequency: The frequency range for the connectors and adapters being equipped with surge
suppression is usually below 3.0 GHz.
Operating Temperature Range: The temperature ranges from -54°C to +125°C, or evenwider, depending on the application, the design and the materials used. Engineering can usuallyoffer something that fits perfectly the system use.
Risetime/Voltage: Depending on the design and the type of fuse being incorporated, thedevices will trigger in microseconds, or even nanoseconds. The pulse rise time is normallyvery fast and measured in kV/µs.

Lightning Surge Suppressors

Lightning Surge Suppressors
VSWR: VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal. Because of the built
in fuse, incorporated in the RF path, electrically the device is not ideal at all anymore. But as
the fuse is normally small, compared to the wavelength of the operating frequency, the voltage
standing wave ratio is in general still good enough for the application, or in other words: adegredation in VSWR is not noticeable. Corrective actions integrated in the design, will help
in addition to keep the reflected signal to a minimum.

Limiters
INTRODUCTION: Limiters are used to protect RF components against excessive incident
power levels.The devices are designed and manufactured to meet stringent requirements,
mechanically, electrically and environmentally. It is the specialty of Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbHto design and manufacture devices to meet stringent specifications, electrically, mechanicallyand environmentally.
Fundamentals: The power limiting circuit consists of a single PIN diode or several diodes,
shunted across a transmission line, requiring a DC return in order to achieve proper limiting
operation. Low input power passes with the minimum insertion loss of the circuit. Powerlevels, greater than the threshold level will cause greater insertion loss, resulting in leakage
power that the output power of the device remains at constant level.
High Power Limiters: In radar applications a limiter is normally installed to protect thereceiver against excessive power, caused by unwanted reflections from other nearby radars or
objects that accidentally come close to the radar. For normal power levels the limiter will
operate like the classic device. But even high power levels arrive, the limiter will act as areflective unit, protecting the receiver by returning all the power that cannot be absorbed backinto the line. To control the reflected power, usually a circulator is installed at the input of thelimiter, directing the excessive power to a high power load where it will be absorbed.
Custom Units: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH offers mainly custom designed limiters, special
components, using different or an even unique mechanical configuration, special frequency
ranges than normally offered, higher power levels, etc. Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is avery innovative company. It employs a strong and successful team of experienced engineers.
They will always do their best to propose something that will perfectly fit the requirements.
Frequency and Bandwidth: Limiters have been designed and manufactured to serve multioctave bandwidths, from very low frequencies up to Ku band. Wide operating bandwidths
usually apply for low power limiters. The higher the power level becomes, the narrower the
bandwidth will be.

VSWR: VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal. Every microwave
component shows reflections and discontinuities within the circuit, as no design is perfect,
and manufacturing tolerances do not allow perfect designs anyway.

Housing and Connector Configuration: Most of the designs, Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbHcan offer, will be engineered exactly to the customer specifications, size and shape of the
housing supplied with the necessary connector configuration, providing that the frequency
range of the connectors do not limit the frequency range of the application. As Spectrum
Elektrotechnik GmbH is manufacturing its own housings and its own connectors, almost
every mechanical configuration needed and every connector style preferred may become reality.

Machines, CNCA-700
Coaxial cables interconnect the many modules and components found in a high-frequency
system. In recent years, manufacturers of high-speed computers have resorted to semirigid
and flexible coaxial cables to make connections between printed-circuit boards (PCBs). Whilemost designers try to minimize the lengths (depending upon phase relationships) and numbersof coaxial cables found in a system, they are necessary for signal-routing operations. For
those systems integrators who require moderate to large amounts of coaxial cable, help in
handling has finally arrived: the CNCA-700 automatic cable cutting and stripping machinefrom Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH. The machine, which handles semirigid and flexible
cables with diameters to 0.5 in., features fast setup time and standard tooling.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH, which is well-known as an international supplier of coaxial
connectors, cables and cable assemblies through 50.0 GHz, has long used embedded-computercontrolled CNCA-700 internally for processing cables. The same machine is now available toother cable manufacturers requiring large numbers of cable assemblies.
In operation, a cable mounted on the CNCA-700 is turned by and between two spindles
which can be positioned very closely together. Both spindles move simultaneously, each driven
by its own stepper motor. The stepper motors can stop the spindles with an accuracy of
0.0004 in. (0.01mm). Adjustments in stripping length can be made with 0.002-in. (0.05-mm)
resolution and adjustments in stripping diameter can be made with 0.0004-in. (0.01-mm) resolution.
The cable feed is at one spindle. The other spindle works as a push/pull device, picking up thecable and pulling it to length and /or pushing it back when necessary and supporting the cableagain during the machining of the cable/connector interface.
The cutting device is a standard tungsten saw, located in another stepper motor drive. The
saw turns at high speed, providing rapid and clean cuts. The cutting speed can be readily
adjusted to optimum speeds for different metals, such as aluminum, copper, or stainless steel.
The tungsten saw also points the center conductors.
Cable assemblies are cut, stripped and transported onto a conveyer belt under computer control.
To aid program development, a standard personal computer can be connected to the CNCA-700.

The CNCA-700 is shipped with a variety of dedicated software tools for cutting and stripping
standard semirigid cables from 0.034 to 0.5 in. in diameter. Programs are also included forstripping some standard flexible cables.

e:/quickc98/prod&se3.pm6

The CNCA-700 permits the user to change certain parameters during operation. For example,
by entering depth corrections or values for a cable assembly length via a computer keyboard,the cutting depth and/or cable length can be changed during operation. By exchanging thebrackets at the stripping arm and the standard collects in the CNCA-700's spindles, and selecting
a new software program from the menu, the machine can be adjusted within minutes for adifferent cable diameter.

INTRODUCTION: Mismatches for 50 Ohm lines are terminations which have been designed for terminating lines with a characteristic impedance other than 50 Ohms. For example
a termination, designed for reflectionless termination of a 25 Ohms line, will cause a mismatchof 2:1 when used on a 50 Ohm line (50:25 = 2:1).
Applications: Mismatches are used as standards of reflections in calibrating reflectometer
setups and/or other impedance measurement devices. Mismatches are also used to simulate
known impedances other than 50 Ohms, to introduce test conditions in a system and to measure the results that would be encountered, once the actual component is installed in the system.
Mismatch Values: Standard Mismatch Values for a 50 Ohm transmission line are known as
1.25:1, 1.5:1, 2:1, 4:1, etc. For specific applications any mismatch value can be designed.
Frequency Range: The frequency range of the Mismatches depends on the design. Theoretically Mismatches can be designed for almost any frequency range.
Power: Precision Mismatches are usually designed and needed for test and calibration purposes, operating at low power. For other applications units can be supplied as special, engineered exactly to the customers' needs.
VSWR: VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal. Mismatches aredesigned to provide reflectionless termination of a line other than 50 Ohms. For the 50 Ohm
line however they show a known VSWR over the frequency range specified. The better thedesign and the lower the manufacturing tolerances, the more constant the VSWR will be overthe frequency range.
Connector Configuration: Most of the Mismatches manufactured by Spectrum
Elektrotechnik GmbH are available with different connector configurations, providing thatthe frequency range of the connectors do not limit the frequency range of the application.
BNC connectors operate to 4.0 GHz, HN and SBX connectors to 8.0 GHz, C, SC and 1.8/5.6
to 10.0 GHz, TNC (per MIL-C-39012) operate min. to 11.0 GHz (as per MIL-Specification,
but this can be extended to 14 or even 16 GHz). SBY work to 12.0 GHz, 2/5.5 connectors
operate to 14.0 GHz, SMA, SPM, N, TNC (per MIL-C-87104/2),TNX, BMA and 7mm
connectors can be used to 18.0 GHz, 1.4/4.4 to 20.0 GHz, 3.5mm connectors to 26.5 GHz,or respectively to 35.0 GHz. K* and SMP connectors are designed to operate to 40.0 GHz
and 2.4mm connectors to 50.0 GHz.
Standard Products: Although a number of products have been supplied to customer orders,a standard product line on Mismatches has not been established yet. But there is a possibility
that the product required has been designed already or that a design, very close to therequirement exists. Therefore please check your requirements with our sales force, or our
engineering staff.
Custom Designs: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has been designing and supplying special
Mismatches to suit particular requirements, such as wide bandwidths, unique mechanicaloutline, unusual mounting or special connector requirements, etc., etc.
Operating Temperature Range: It usually ranges from -54°C to +125°C, or it is evenwider. The temperature range will affect the power handling of the devices.

Rotary Joints
INTRODUCTION: There are applications where a stationary RF line needs to be connected
to a rotating component.The Rotary Joint has been developed to service these needs, translating
the electromagnetic energy from a stationary line to a rotating line. As the Rotary Joint is a
dynamic device, the electrical performance depends very much on a reliable mechanical designthat is engineered for the satisfaction of the dynamic requirements and the RF performance.
The electrical specification of the Rotary Joint is not supposed to change over its guaranteed lifetime.
The Coaxial Line Rotary Joint: The device has coaxial input and output terminals and isusing a transmission path that is also a coaxial line.For the electromagnetic propagation the
TEM mode is used. The unit can usually cover a wide frequency range. The power handlingcapability is normally only restricted by the power limits of the connectors.
The Waveguide Rotary Joint: This device is using rectangular waveguide for input andoutput, and for the transmission line itself. The unit operates in the TE10 mode and canprovide low VSWR at high power levels. As coupling for the rotation element, normally anoncontacting choke coupling is employed. The frequency band of operation is limited by the
waveguide and in addition by the frequency sensitivity of the coupling choke.
The Waveguide to Coaxial Rotary Joint: For Input and output of the device rectangular
waveguide is used, while the transmission line path is provided as coaxial line, connecting to
the waveguide sections. The modes of operation are TE10 mode in the waveguide sections
and TEM in the coaxial path. The operating frequency is limited by the waveguide, the poweris limited by the coaxial part.
The Rectangular to Circular Waveguide Rotary Joint: Input and output of the device areprovided as rectangular waveguide, the transmission line uses circular waveguide. The modesof operation are the TE10 mode in the rectangular sections and the TM01 mode in the circular
waveguide. As coupling for the rotation element, normally a noncontacting choke coupling isused. The frequency band of operation is limited by the waveguide and in addition by thefrequency sensitivity of the coupling choke.

Rotary Joint Life: The life expectancy will mainly depend on the lifetime of the ball bearings,
seals, and contact junctions. Other parameters that are limiting life, are rotational speed, andexternal mechanical loading, or pressurizing the unit. Harsh environment, subjecting the rotary
joint to vibrations, shock, extremely low or high temperatures, humidity, etc. may further
shorten the lifetime. It is therefore of utmost importance to identify in detail the environment
the device is supposed to operate in.

Frequency Range: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has manufactured units in different
frequency bands, usually designed exactly to the customers' specifications. Engineering iscurrently designing Standard Coaxial Rotary Joints for the frequency ranges DC-2.0 GHz,
DC-18.0 GHz and DC-26.5 GHz, operating in a regular environment.
A rather simple design will meet all the requirements at lower frequency ranges, while only amost precise and state-of-the-art unit can be used at higher frequencies.

Rotary Joints

e:/quickc98/prod&se3.pm6

VSWR: Every microwave component shows reflections and discontinuities within the circuit,as no design can be perfect, and manufacturing tolerances unfortunately do not allow perfectdesigns. VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal. Rotary Joints arealso characterized by the tendency of having to use a high number of parts. The tolerances on
the dimensions need to be as tight as possible, not only for mechanical purposes, but also forelectrical reasons, in order to assure that reflections cannot increase after some time of operation.

Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH manufactures coaxial rotary
joints to customer specifications: To the specific frequency range,
power limits, return loss, insertion loss, temperature range,
rotational speed, connector configuration, mechanical outline, etc., etc.

Supercomponents
INTRODUCTION: By integrating components, assemblies are engineered that exhibit anumber of advantages against the common designs, such as reduced package size at lower
cost and superior RF performance. A Supercomponent can achieve a volume reduction of 10
to 1, or even more. Electrically, the integration may result into lower transmission loss, flat
attenuation and improved VSWR.
The success of integrated packaging depends on the total understanding and the control of
the components that are supposed to be integrated. Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has anextensive capability in a variety of passive and active components.
Modular Packaging: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has an intensive product capability indevices such as attenuators, limiters, couplers, detectors, filters, power dividers, terminations,etc. By using this specific component experience, Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH can produce
effectively integrated packages, using stripline or microstrip circuitry.
Modular Power Component Packaging : This is a higher level of components integration,
generally used for higher power devices. The components or groups of components are usuallyinterconnected by special blind mate connectors, integrated directly into the component
housings. Thus, the connectors can´t even been seen, when the components are connected,
providing shortest distance between the components, which is desirable, especially at thosehigh power levels.....................................................................................................

Example: A High Power Duplexer in a Radar Program did consist of several individualcomponents: a Circulator, a Load, a Directional Coupler, a Limiter and Drive Circuitry. The
Components were mounted to heat sinks and interconnected by cable assemblies.
For the next generation radar Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH was awarded the contract for
a complete redesign: The new space saving design features a compact integration of modular
components. All interconnecting cable assemblies were eliminated, and replaced by using theconnector series SBX and SBY. A drive circuit was added and accommodated into the limiter
housing, together with an over temperature sensor circuit.
In case one of the components becomes defective, or needs to be tested or replaced, only thelocking screws have to be unfastened, and the component can be removed, and replaced,within no time.

Power Interconnections: Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH did design and manufacture twocompletely new connector series, the SBX and SBY, and is offering these now to othermanufacturers for modular packaging purposes. Modular Packaging means not only integration,
it furthermore provides the advantage of easy maintainability and replacement of faulty
components. Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has been a leader in modular integration ofhigh power components.
