There is only one labeling solution dedicated to the medical device industry. It was designed in conjunction with industry leaders and customer user groups including Boston Scientific, Zimmer and Stryker.
DiTom Microwave offers the D3I3743Q single junction 2.4 mm (F) Isolator model designed to operate within the frequency range of 37 to 43 GHz with 1.2 dB of insertion loss. It is ideal for protecting active components from distortion or potentially damaging reflected power.
FLIR offers a large family of 2-dimensional, linear, and X-ray readout integrated circuits (ROICs) for a variety of applications, including P-on-N and N-on-P detectors, and other low background applications. Models are available in mid-format, large-format, and megapixel-format. The available X-ray models are mounted on flex circuits for use in flat panel X-ray detector systems.
The SKY66404-11 is a 2.4 GHz fully integrated RF front-end module (FEM) designed to deliver high performance for ZigBee, Thread, and Bluetooth applications such as in smart thermostats, in-home appliances, IoT devices, smart lighting, sensors, wireless audio, and range extenders.
Skyworks’ ACA2417 is a highly linear low noise, high-gain RF preamplifier module designed to drive D3.1 compliant power doublers in deep fiber node CATV infrastructure applications. Comprising two parallel amplifiers in cascade, it forms a push-pull that is optimized for low noise, low distortion, high output power per channel, and high TCP.
Skyworks offers the SKYH22001 ultra-broadband hermetically sealed low-noise amplifier with superior gain flatness and exceptional linearity. Ideal applications include L and S band communications, radar and weather satellites, test and measurement, extreme industrial and medical equipment, as well as aerospace and defense applications.
The SKY85726-11 is a 5 GHz WLAN Front-End Module (FEM) that is highly integrated and ideal for 802.11ax networking and personal computing systems, PC cards, PCMCIA cards, mini-cards, half mini-cards, and WLAN-enabled wireless video systems.
The SKY66430-11 is a multi-band multi-chip System-in-Package (SiP) supporting cellular LTE-M/NB-IoT platforms for use in wearables, alarm systems, security cameras, industrial monitoring devices, and low-power IoT devices. The SiP integrates the entire RF front end, transceiver, power management, memory, and baseband modem for an LTE multi-band radio operating in the 700 to 2200 MHz frequency range.
