Passive GaAs MMIC 7GHz Equalizer Family MEQX-7ASM Copyright © 2019 Marki Microwave, Inc. P a g e 1 | R e v . E QFN

1 Device Overview

1.1 General Description

The MEQX-7ASM family of passive MMIC equalizer QFN are an ideal solution for compensating for low pass filtering effects in RF/microwave and high speed digital systems. They provide positive slope from DC to 7GHz with DC attenuation options between 3 and 12dB. The unique design offers superior return loss to competitors. GaAs MMIC technology provides consistent unit-to-unit performance in a small, low cost form factor.

1.2 Features

▪ DC attenuation options from 3 to 12dB ▪ Typical Insertion Loss 1.1dB at 7GHz ▪ VSWR < 1.5:1 Over Entire Band ▪ S2P data: MEQX-7ASM.zip

1.3 Applications

▪ RF Transceivers ▪ High-Speed Data ▪ Telecom ▪ Cable Loss Compensation ▪ Amplifier Compensation

2 Port Configurations and Functions

2.1 Port Diagram

A top-down view of the MEQX-7A CH package outline drawing is shown below. The MEQ equalizers are symmetrical allowing Port 1 or Port 2 to be used as the input.

2.2 Port Functions

Port Function Description Equivalent Circuit Pin 1 Input/Output Port 1 is DC connected to ground through a resistor. DC block is required if voltage present. Pin 9 Input/Output Port 2 is DC connected to ground through a resistor. DC block is required if voltage present. GND Ground SM package ground path is provided through the ground paddle.
