board space to add other rich features. The new products build on
the success of TriQuint’s first-generation HADRON PA Module™
family. TriQuint is currently sampling the TQM7M5005 and the
TQM7M5012 to lead customers
and production is planned for 1H
2008.

GPS Quality TCXO
Vectron International announced
its smallest temperature compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) to
date. The new VTM3 TCXO offers
similar phase noise performance to
Vectron’s proven VTC4 and VTC1
TCXOs in a 50% smaller package
(3.2 × 2.5 mm), enabling customers
in the communications, industrial,
test and military markets to benefit from the flexibility of a smaller,
lower power oscillator without
compromising the tight stability
and superb phase noise performance. The new VTM3 TCXO is
optimized for use in a wide range
of wireless RF applications, includ-

ing in GPS, in-car navigation, pilot
locator, security/tracking, WLAN,
WiMAX and WiFi base stations,
Bluetooth, digital cameras, PHS,
RFID, test equipment, and wireless meter readers. Generally
available as a fixed-frequency
TCXO, the VTM3 can be ordered
with a voltage controlled crystal
oscillator (VCXO) function for
applications such as seismic exploration, base station, video transport and WiMAX timing. And, with
current consumption as low as 1
mA, the new VTM3 TCXO is ideally suited for battery powered applications. Vectron’s new VTM3 is
currently available.

New Brochure
NDK (Nihon Dempa Kogyo Co.,
Ltd.) has developed a new fourpage color brochure highlighting
their frequency control products
for these applications. The
brochure reviews the in-vehicle
and telematic applications. NDK’s
transportation components have
proven to deliver excellent performance in the harshest of applications. Products covered in the
brochure include crystals, TCXOs
and XOs. Copies are available by
calling 800-NDK-XTAL (635-9825)
or by emailing [email protected].

High Frequency Coax
Contacts
Sabritec has launched a new range
of high frequency coax contacts for
multi-pin connector applications.
The high frequency coax contacts
are engineered with a “float
mount” design to ensure low
VSWR at microwave frequencies
by preventing air gaps at the mating interface and are spring loaded
for optimum reliability. High frequency coax contacts are designed
to fit in size 8 and 12 cavities for
MIL-DTL-38999, ARINC 404,
ARINC 600 and size Size 8 cavities
for MIL-DTL-24308 D-subminiature connectors. These contacts
offer exceptional RF performance,
up to 26.5 GHz for Size 8 and 40
GHz for size 12 contacts, and are
designed to be terminated to .086
diameter flexible cables (RG-405
equivalent).

WiMAX Circulators
Renaissance
Electronics
Corporation has invested in the
new development of carrier class
components supporting WiMAX
base stations. We have produced
three new circulator designs that
are high reliability, extended temperature devices with minimal
insertion loss. The screw top design
is better suited for mass production with consistent test results
particularly at the higher 3.3 to 3.8
