The technology has driverless installation and offers frequency ranges up to 40GHz.

Pasternack, a provider of RF, microwave and millimeter wave product, has launched a new line of USB-controlled microwave and millimeter wave components. This family includes amplifiers, attenuators and PIN diode switches.

The new components are powered and controlled by a USB 2.0 port with driverless installation. The attenuators and PIN diode switches require an easy-to-use downloadable software that is Windows compatible. Pasternack is releasing tow models of amplifiers, switches and attenuators that have frequency bands up to 40GHz. The modules are 50 Ohm hybrid MIC designs that do not require any external matching components.

“Pasternack now offers a complete selection of high performance broadband USB controlled amplifiers, attenuators and switches. The USB 2.0 connection is convenient and innovative, utilizing a computer interface to power and control these devices for ease of use,” says Tim Galla, product manager, Active RF Components at Pasternack.
