A Product Overview, Phase Adjustable Adapters

Product Overview, Phase Adjustable Adapters A

INTRODUCTION: The Precision Phase Shifters, or Phase Adjusters allow the adjustment of the electrical separation between components. A
precision mechanical movement provides for smooth and accurate adjustment over the entire frequency range. A secure locking mechanism isfurnished with every unit. A wide selection of components is available, offering different mechanical configuration, frequency range, electricallength, and/or connector configuration.

Frequency
Range
(GHz)

Phase Adjustment: The Phase Shifters are mechanical devices, therefore the change of phase depends on the adjustment of the electrical lengthof a line. For lower frequencies or longer phase adjustments, a trombone line is usually used; for higher frequencies or shorter adjustment, only
a straight line may be sufficient. Using an air line results in low insertion loss and good VSWR. The designs of Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH
employ air lines, whenever possible.
Frequency Range: Phase Adjusters are available for different frequency ranges, DC-2.0 GHz, DC-12.4 GHz, DC-18.0 GHz, DC-26.5 GHz,
DC-40.0 GHz, DC-50.0 GHz, and DC-65.0 GHz. For economical reasons the components have been engineered for these different frequency
bands. A rather simple design will meet all the requirements at lower frequency ranges, while only a most precise design will work satisfactorily
at highest frequencies.
Connector Configuration: Most of the Phase Adjusters of Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH are available with different connector configurations,providing that the frequency range of the connectors do not limit the frequency range of the application. The flatpack phase adjusters can besupplied with 7mm, SMA, N, and TNC, males and females, as standard. Besides the units being supplied with connectors, using the same style
but different sex at input and output, it is even possible to have a unit being supplied with connectors of completely different connector styles,
e.g. N female as an input connector and SMA male as the output connector, etc.
The Adjustable Adapters and Components, serving to 26.5 GHz are offered with SMA connectors, and are available with male or female
connectors at the in- and output or vice versa. With 40.0 GHz usually 2.92 mm connectors will be used, and with 50.0 GHz the 2.4mm
connectors have been chosen. The ones that work up to 65.0 GHz are assembled with 1.85mm connectors.

Custom Units: Although Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH offers a wide variety of standard phase adjusters, there will always be a need for a
special component, using different mechanical configuration, wider phase adjustment, other frequency ranges, etc. Spectrum ElektrotechnikGmbH is a very 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 customer's needs.

Power: The standard components are designed for low or moderate power applications. For higher power applications, units can be supplied as
specials, engineered exactly to the customer's needs.

Phase Adjuster Life: The life expectancy of a unit will depend in the first place on the operating environment versus unit design. Secondly, it
will 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 component to vibrations, shock, extremely low orhigh temperatures, humidity, etc. may further shorten the lifetime. It is therefore of utmost importance to identify in detail the environment thedevice is supposed to operate in.
If the unit is installed in a system where the phase only will be adjusted a few times, it would not be necessary to select a device that is using ballbearings in the design, vice versa will a phase adjuster cause trouble in an environment where it is constantly adjusted, when not the appropriate
mechanical design will be used.
Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has a large number of available designs. Please take the time to decide on the unit that fits exactly yourrequirements.

Applications: Phase Adjusters will mostly be needed in systems where the adjustment of the phase is done for only a few times. As soon as thephase is set properly as needed in the system, the unit will usually be locked, and remain in this position. In other applications the phase shifters
are installed in test sets where the adjustment of phase is made continuously. For these applications, only the Phase Adjusters using ball bearing
support and special mechanisms can be recommended.
VSWR: Every microwave component shows reflections and discontinuities within the circuit, as no design can be perfect, and manufacturing
tolerances unfortunately do not allow theoretical results. VSWR is the ratio of the reflected signal and the incident signal. Phase Shifters are using
a high number of parts. Therefore, the tolerances on the dimensions of the piece parts need to be as tight as possible not only for mechanicalpurposes, but also for electrical reasons, in order to assure that reflections cannot build up after some time of operation.

Phase Matching Cable Assemblies

Phase Matching Cable Assemblies

Phase Matching

Phase Matched Cable Assemblies

Cable Assemblies can be matched in Phase, Delay, and Amplitude. The most common matching is thePhase matching. It can be specified in electrical degrees at a specified frequency or in time delay.
Three groups of candidates are of interest for phase matched cable assemblies:• Flexible Cables, having one or more layers of braid as outer conductor• Semi Rigid Cables, using copper or stainless steel for the outer conductor• Semi Flexible Cables, easier formable by hand, using as outer conductor aluminum tubing (HandyForm II) or
tinned copper braid (HandyForm I)

Phase Matched Cable Assemblies in Sets
Normally two specifications are being used for phase matched sets of cables assemblies:• Matching to a Standard: The phase standard is usually a piece of hardware, a “Gold Standard”, it
also could be an unchanging software standard; i.e. a specified electrical length at a certain frequency.
• Matching as a Set: Cable assemblies matched as a set means that the assemblies of the same set
are matched to each other. The cables in one set may not match those of another set.

Governing Parameters when Phase Matching

Governing Parameters when Phase Matching

Phase matched Cable Assemblies: They are being used in many applications, the best known usage isin phase array antennas, where up to hundreds of assemblies have to be matched to a few degrees atthe operating frequency. If it were possible to cut the cable assemblies mechanically 100% to length,
this would not automatically mean that the assemblies had the same electrical length. This can easily
be understood due to the following:

Connector Properties: The connectors used for terminating the Assemblies have tolerances as well,also in diameters and lengths of the center contact, dielectric and outer conductor. Although Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH is using the tightest tolerances of +/- 0.005 mm (0.0002 inches) at theimportant dimensions of the connectors; the connectors are not 100% identical.
Workmanship: Terminating the connectors to the assembly will add the next problem, as it is definitely not possible to mount the connectors 100% identical to each other onto the cables. There
will always be minor mechanical differences in the gaps, and the solder joints, causing discrepancies in mechanical and electrical lengths. The cable assemblies will have slightly different VSWR,
and this will cause some difference in phase as well. The tolerances will add up, and also the best
possible workmanship will not guarantee for cable assemblies, identical electrically, especially athigher frequency applications.

Frequency of Operation: The higher the operating frequency and the closer the required phasematch, the more difficult the matching process will be, and the cost might be higher.
Length of Cable Assemblies: Short Cable Assemblies are usually easier to match and to test thanlonger assemblies. With longer assemblies there is already the problem that they need to be coiled
for testing and this already results in phase changes, a wider match window is required.

Installation: Especially for matched sets with long cable assemblies phase changes can be expectedduring installation. Phase adjustable connectors or adapters can be used for phase correction after
installation.

Preconditioning: The cables of a phase-matched set need to be thermally stress relieved before
phase matching. At Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH the cable is preconditioned by exposing it
several times to temperatures of -54°C to +125°C, in some cases even between -71°C to +200°C.
This will assure good phase tracking.
Temperature: Change in temperature will result in change of electrical length of the cable assembly,
caused by the dielectric of the cable. Cables using solid extruded PTFE dielectric are generally
strong mechanically but higher for insertion loss and show worst phase changes over temperaturewhen compared to cables using high density dielectric. These latter cables are weaker mechanically but lower in insertion loss and have better phase versus temperature characteristics. The phasechange with temperature may not be that critical if the complete set is exposed to the changing
temperature, as the phase will shift equally in all of the assemblies of the set, assuming that assemblies are not formed in a bundle where the inner assemblies will see the temperature change muchlater than the outer assemblies. It will be most critical when assemblies of the same set, matched at
the same temperature (e.g. ambient), but are subjected to different temperatures in the system.
Different Connectors at Assemblies in a set: There is no problem to use different connector
styles in a set of matched cable assemblies; it may add additional cost though, as the matchingprocess may get more complicated because of different connector lengths and dielectrics.

Phase matching using Phase Adjustable Adapters: Phase Adjustable Adapters operating up to
63.00 GHz are available as well. Standard cable assemblies may be matched by adding such a
Phase Adjustable Adapter. These devices are available for frequencies from DC to 12.4 GHz, DC
to 18.0 GHz and DC to 26.5 GHz, using SMA connectors, designs operating from DC to 40.0
GHz, using 2.92 mm connectors, units operating from DC to 50.0 GHz, using 2.4 mm connectors
and devices operating from DC to 63.0 GHz, connectorized with 1.85 mm connectors.
Adjusting Phase indd.2014

Cable Properties: A cable is not 100% mechanically homogeneous. The cable center contact has
tolerances, as well as the dielectric and the outer conductor, causing slight differences in impedance and velocity of propagation. Manufacturing the cable without tolerance is not possible, unfortunately. For a cable the tolerance of the velocity of propagation is usually specified between +/-1%
and +/-2%, resulting in different electrical lengths of cable assemblies in spite of having identicalphysical lengths. This will be noticeable especially with long cable assemblies or when using cablefrom different manufacturing lots.

F

Phase matching using Phase Adjustable Connectors: In certain applications, especially when using Semi-Rigid Cable, the customer may want to make his own phase matched assemblies. Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH offers for those applications a variety of Phase Adjustable Connectors.
The assembly procedures for terminating the cable with these Phase Adjustable connectors are
similar to the procedure for regular connectors. The Phase Adjustable Connectors are available forfrequencies from DC to 18.0 GHz, and DC to 26.0 GHz using SMA connectors, and designs operating from DC to 40.0 GHz, using 2.92 mm connectors. Designs for higher frequency applications
may be available in the near future, using 2.4 mm and 1.85 mm connectors.

Adjusting Phase indd.2014

F

Bending: When the cable assemblies are being bent after the connectors have been terminated tothe cable a phase change can be expected, due to the center conductor shifting versus the outerconductor. The mechanical and electrical length of the assembly will change, and the VSWR may
change as well. This will result in phase change. For sets with long cable assemblies phase changes can be expected after the installation in a system. Phase change will depend also on the bend
radii. If the cables are flexed, the number of cycles, and the similarity of the flexure cycles of theassemblies in the set have to be taken into consideration for phase tracking.

Uncertainties: Vector Network Analyzers will be usually used in a temperature-controlled room.
But still it has to be taken into consideration that test results taken even with the best equipment
are subjected to tolerances.

Factory Phase Adjustable Connectors

Factory Phase Adjustable Connectors

The Factory Phase Adjustable Connectors look like regular connectors. They are only sold already terminated at Phase Matched
Cable Assemblies, adjusted to customer specification.

Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH has developed a number of techniques to phase match flexible
assemblies and Semi-Rigid Cable Assemblies as well. From the outline the factory phase adjustableconnectors do not show any difference, compared to any of Spectrum's standard connectors.
Internally these connectors are using well engineered components that are designed for:Center Contact, Dielectric and Outer Conductor swopping for length changes, some of them toachieve length changes of a few hundreds of a millimeter only but maintaining perfectly 50 Ohms
impedance. This system is of especial interest in programs where weight restrictions do exist, or
where no parts are allowed that cannot be locked 100%, or where the assemblies are submitted tovibration.
A well kept secret for achieving Phase Adjustment is by swapping certain internal ferrules. Afterinstallation the parts are well secured within the connector that the units can undergo vibration
without any problems. The design is also used where weight restrictions do exist. 50 Ohms
impedance will be maintained 100%.
In several applications there are long flexible cable assemblies needed and Phase Matching among
the assemblies is required as well. What happens to a 20 m assembly after having been pulled,even very carefully, through an airline body or its wings? The flexible cable assembly that has
undergone factory phase matching, might not be phase matched any more. So after installation adjustment is necessary. A sizable number of phase adjustable connectors have been developed, evenusing a self locking mechanism.

G Center Contact, and Outer Conductor swopping for length and diameter changes, and Dielectrics

The company uses several systems to achieve the necessary phase adjustment. The pictures
above show some example connectors. In general phase adjustment can be made at almost
any connector style and for frequencies up to 65 GHz. Every system guarantess that the impedance is always maintained to 50 Ohms.

swopping with different Dielectric Constants. With this system changes of parts of a degree arepossible, but always maintaining perfectly 50 Ohms impedance. These phase adjustable connectors
are also of interest in programs where weight restrictions do exist, or where no parts are allowedthat cannot be locked 100%, or where the assemblies are submitted to heavy vibration.

System 1:
Swopping internal parts, such as Center- & Outer Conductors, & Dielectrics. From the outside the unit looks like a normal Connector.

The systems only pay off for factory phase adjustments. The reason is borne in the high number ofpiece parts needed. Using the system by the customer, the necessary number of piece parts, centercontacts, dielectrics and outer conductors would need to be in stock at customer site for phasematching only a few assemblies, and this would make it obviously too expensive. As Spectrum isphase matching assemblies on a daily basis, all necessary piece parts in all the different lengths
and diameters are in stock, resulting in reasonable priced Phase Matched Cable Assemblies.

Factory Phase Adjustable Connectors

In many cases Assemblies using Multiport Connectors need to bephase matched. A varietyy of Inserts are availble to phase match
any Multiport at the factory.

The Customer Phase Adjustable Connectors look different, compared to the regular connectors. After they are terminated to theassemblies and the company has set the cable assemblies to thespecified phase the customet can adjust the phase then at his convenience and at any time. Used is this often at long cable assemblies. After the customer puts the assemblies in place, e.g. from thewings of an airplane to the cockpit he then can adjust the assemblies again to his needs.

Connectors may practically eliminate the need to trim cables to predetermined lengths, in order to achieve theexact phase requirements of a microwave network. Cables only need to be trimmed to the approximate electrical length. The Phase Shifter then allows to make the necessary adjustment between the other components
in the system. As a result of the small size and light weight, these Phase Shifters can be used in applications
with space limitations, such as airborne and satellite equipment.

Phase Matching Long Flexible Cable Assemblies
There always will be a problem with long flexible phase matched Cable Assemblies. When they are routed in thesystem to their final position, e.g. through the wings or in the body of an airplane, they will be bent and maybe
slightly stretched. The perfectly factory matched assemblies may not be phase matched anymore after the installation. Spectrum Elektrotechnik GmbH developed phase adjustable connectors, being adjustable over a wide range
in order to adjust the Cable Assemblies after installation. These phase adjustable connectors are self locking.
