PCS-P Series

Split Ground High Power

Thin Film Terminators

The PCS-P series split ground high power thin film terminator com-

bines the improved heat dissipation of a double-sided flange and the

split ground to give a power rating of up to 80W, while providing excellent high frequency characteristics

from DC to 10GHz. Attaching the flange directly to a heat sink provides improved heat dissipation at a higher

power rating. Typical applications include aerospace, wireless communication, satellites and RF power ampli-

fiers.
