Amplifiers

Low Noise Amplifier

Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA) is used in the receiver chain for amplifying received RF signals. It’s function is to ensure

the weak RF signal can be amplified with very minimal noise added. TMYTEK’s low-noise amplifier (LNA) focuses on

the mmWave band for customer’s who are interested in mmWave transceiver and wireless applications. Our LNA’s key

feature is wide band coverage. Our standard LNAs cover the frequency range from 16 GHz to 40 GHz which are suitable

for numerous frequency band requirements. On top of that, they also have excellent noise performance and superior

gain. Some of our LNA’s application includes Point-to-Point radio, SATCOM and wireless communication systems.

Our LNAs are packaged in coaxial connectorized modules which means we have taken care of all the biasing network

including built-in voltage regulation, bias sequencing and reverse bias protection. This simplifies the use of LNA and

makes system integration a step easier.

Power Amplifier

Power Amplifiers (PA) is used in the transmitter chain for amplifying signals to be broadcasted. It’s function is to ensure

RF signal is large enough to be detected. TMYTEK’s power amplifiers (PA) is also made for broadband coverage similar to

our LNA products. Its focus is also on the mmWave band for customers who are interested in mmWave transceiver and

wireless applications. Our standard PAs cover the frequency range from DC to 40 GHz and they feature excellent gain,

high output power and exceptional noise performances. They are most suitable for customers looking for high gain, low

noise figure and wide band coverage amplifiers. This could be applicable to Point-to-Point radio, SATCOM and wireless

communication systems. Our PAs are packaged in coaxial connectorized modules which means we have taken care of all

the biasing network including built-in voltage regulation, bias sequencing and reverse bias protection. This simplifies the

use of PA and makes system integration a step easier.

Cryogenic Low Noise Amplifier

Microwave cryogenic low noise amplifiers (Cryo-LNAs) have been widely used in many applications which requires the

ultra-low receiver noise such as radio astronomy and quantum computing. These amplifiers are designed to operate at

very low temperatures such as 77 Kelvin (-196°C), 15 Kelvin (-258°C), and 4 Kelvin (-269°C). The adapted technologies

for designing these Cryo-LNAs are GaAs pHEMTs, InP HEMTs, and SiGe HBTs. In order to achieve the best noise

performance, all the transistor parameters should be modelled at the cryogenic temperature. TMYTEK has the capabilities

to design the Cryo-LNAs from MMICs to discrete circuits with our own cryogenic models. All the Cryo-LNAs are delivered

with extra precaution designed packages and protective materials are chosen in order to have the best heat sinking and

cooling capabilities.

Frequency Conversion

Frequency Multiplier

A frequency multiplier is a nonlinear device that is capable of producing an output signal that is at integer multiples

of the input signal frequency. For an integer multiple of two, it is also commonly known as ‘doubler’. The output of a

frequency multiplier is known as the ‘harmonic’ of the fundamental signal in which the ‘fundamental’ frequency is the

input frequency. Hence, when selecting a frequency multiplier, we are often interested in their conversion loss between

the fundamental and the desired harmonic, suppression of undesired harmonics, and power generated at the output.

TMYTEK’s mmWave multipliers cover the RF frequency range from 15 to 45 GHz and are packaged in our own miniature

designed package.

Mixers

A RF/mmWave mixer translates the input signal frequency to an output signal of a different frequency. The translation

can be either from a lower frequency to a higher frequency or vice versa. It is worth noting that the important factors that

we look for in mixers are its’ conversion loss, multi-tone intermodulation products, single tone spurious products, and

isolations. These are all parameters that could affect the dynamic range of a RF/mmWave system. TMYTEK’s standard

mixers cover the frequency range from 10 to 86 GHz and have excellent conversion loss/gain. It is also packaged in our in

house designed connectorized modules which is very compact in size.

Up / Down Converters

TMYTEK’s up or down converters are built to customers’ needs. It offers great flexibility including the choices of internal

local oscillator (LO) as well as internal amplifier (including PA or LNA). It is custom made to provide our customers the

most suitable up / down converters for their applications. Some of these applications include Point-to-Point radio,

broadband communications, and RADAR applications. It is also excellent in performance as we take care of all the

internal circuitry including image rejection, LO or RF buffer, LO multiplications, filtering as well as all the bias networks.

TMYTEK also offers dual band up or down converters for some of our customers looking for both 28 GHz and 39 GHz

converters. Our up / down converters are offered in connectorized box for easy operation.

Digital Controlled Products

Digital Controlled Attenuators (DCA)

TMYTEK’s standard digital controlled attenuator operates in the frequency range up to 30 GHz. It is a 6 bit digital

attenuator capable of attenuating up to 31.5 dB with a minimum of 0.5 dB per step. Digital controlled attenuators can

be used in variety of applications including automotive, wireless (including 5G communication) and radar. Our DCA

is typically controlled by TTL but we also offer USB control as an option. The packaging of DCAs are in house designed

connectorized modules.

Digital Controlled Filters (DCF)

We are typically used to designing filters at our band of interest. But when there are more and more demands for

applications such as multi-band transceivers or multi-standard communication systems, it became crucial for us to

develop filters that can be used in multiple scenarios. This is why digital controlled filters became essential. TMYTEK

offers a wide selection of digital controlled filters including low pass filters, high pass filters and band pass filters. Our

DCF operates up to 18 GHz with excellent performances such as low insertion loss. Our DCF range from 4 to 9 bit control

and is typically controlled by TTL but we also offer USB control as an option. The packaging of DCFs are in house designed

connectorized modules.

Digital Controlled Phase Shifters (DPS)

TMYTEK’s digital controlled phase shifters are developed for use with the 5G beamforming system particularly in the 28

GHz band. The operating frequency ranges from 26.5 to 30.5 GHz with excellent phase and amplitude accuracy across

the nominal frequency band. The phase shifter is a 6 bit control covering 360˚ with 5.625˚ per step. The attenuation

control is 5 bit; each step is 0.7 dB with a maximum of 21.7 dB attenuation. Our DPS is a passive device and it follows

the T/R structure and exhibits only two RF ports and the control port. Our DPS is typically controlled by USB. The

packaging of DPSs are in house designed connectorized modules.

Digital Controlled Switches and Matrices (DSW)

TMYTEK’s digital controlled switch series covers a broad range of switches including standard frequency switches, such

as SPDT, SP4T and SP8T and switch matrices, such as 2x2 matrix, 4x4 matrix and 8x8 matrix. They all have one advantage

in common and that is wideband coverage. The standard frequency switches cover the frequency range from 50 MHz all

the way up to 50 GHz while the switch matrices covers up to 18 GHz. Some of the important parameters worth noting

is that they have low insertion loss and excellent isolation. We also offer special edition switch matrix which includes

all of the switching features of the 2x2 matrix and on top of that the input ports and the output ports are all internally

switchable. Our DSWs are typically controlled by USB. The packaging of DSWs are in house designed connectorized

APLL™

TMYTEK’s exclusive patented design Adaptive Phase-Locked Loop (APLLTM) system is a signal source development tool

made to help Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) developers the ability to characterize VCO phase noise in different

locking bandwidths. It is the first system in the world designed specifically to measure VCO reliably and repeatably.

It is also a tool for phase-locked loop (PLL) or phase-locked oscillator (PLO) developers to foresee the performance of

VCO in phase-locked loop by providing the feature to lock any VCO with any KVCO and voltage tuning range. It is used in

combination with any spectrum or noise figure analyzers. Some of our APLL™’s key features are summarized below.

APLL™ Key Features:

• Recover phase noise of VCO reliably and repeatably.

• Accurately measure the phase noise within the minimum frequency window span.

• Simplify PLL design with tunable bandwidth and phase noise

• Ability to adjust phase noise levels for both noisy and noiseless applications

• Works with all existing spectrum and noise figure analyzers

With the key features listed above, our APLL™ is able to ease VCO design with better control over the final performances.

This would save time and money for our customers for a faster design turnaround and delivery. The APLL is easily

powered by industry standard wall outlet 110 VAC with ultra low internal noise circuitry (optional 220 VAC is also

available).
