Micro Harmonics Corporation has announced the release of its new mmWave orthomode transducer (OMT), engineered for high frequency applications requiring low loss, excellent polarization purity and wideband operation. The WR-3.4 orthomode transducer is optimized for systems operating in the 220 to 330 GHz frequency range, delivering performance that meets or exceeds stringent requirements for satellite [...]
Doubling data at sub-THz: one link, two polarizations, twice the data. As part of the pursuit of sub-terahertz (THz) systems, engineers from Keysight and VDI used a MMW OMT from Micro Harmonics to successfully transmit two independent, wideband signals, each on an orthogonal polarization, through a single spatial link at 142 GHz. By combining both [...]
A 60-year-old theory is changing the game for millimeter-wave attenuators (MMW). An article published in New Electronics explains how engineers have long relied on PIN diodes and resistive vane attenuators to manage signal strength. Yet, both come with serious tradeoffs at high frequencies. Now, a breakthrough in Faraday rotation is unlocking a third path forward, [...]
Micro Harmonics has been leveraging the Faraday Rotation principle to advance millimeter-wave (MMW) components into the sub-THz regime. As part of this effort, we recently unveiled our Faraday rotation attenuators. The response has been amazing, and Design Solutions recently featured them in an article. These attenuators provide full waveguide band operation and superior power handling [...]
While an amplifier may function optimally with a well-matched load – such as a power meter – its performance can degrade significantly when the load is not well-matched. Since power amplifier manufacturers cannot dictate the specific load impedance in their customers’ systems, they incorporate isolators to maintain consistent performance. However, as a recent article in [...]
