handles RF input power up to 100W for applications from 50 to 6000MHz including cellular, WiMax, GSM, ISM, test labs and more. This model provides an outstanding combination of performance parameters over its full frequency range with mainline loss as low as 0.2dB, 23dB directivity, 25dB input/output return loss, ±0.6dB coupling flatness (specified over various bandwidths), and DC current passing up to 2A. The coupler is designed with open-style printed wire laminate construction (0.70x0.32x0.20”) for easy integration into dense PCB layouts.

(Nasdaq: CY), a global leader in embedded systems solutions, today introduced a 1.8V, 64Mb NOR Flash memory with a Quad Serial Peripheral Interface (Quad SPI). The newest device in the Cypress FS-S NOR Flash family combines the Quad SPI interface with the industry’s highest read bandwidth and fastest program time while enabling a small PCB layout. The device is ideal for high- performance applications, such as video game consoles, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), automotive instrument clusters and infotainment systems, networking equipment and set-top boxes. High-performance system designs require the highest read bandwidth for program execution, a small, low- pin-count package, and the fastest program and sector erase times. The 64Mb FS-S Quad SPI NOR Flash memory leverages an 80-MHz Double Data Rate (DDR) mode to deliver read bandwidth of 80 MBps and enables the fastest program execution for high-performance systems. Available in industry- standard compact 8-lead SOIC and 24-ball BGA packages, the device saves board space and simplifies layout. The device provides a 0.475-ms program time per 512 bytes, increasing manufacturing throughput and enabling new data to be written quickly. For battery-

applications from 5 to 20GHz in a single device. This model is ideal for wideband systems like defense and instrumentation which require full coverage in a single device, and it delivers consistent performance across its entire frequency range, allowing users to reduce part numbers on their bill of materials with one model. The splitter/combiner provides 1.1dB typical insertion loss, 20dB isolation, 0.1dB amplitude unbalance and 2-4˚ phase unbalance. It handles up to 2.5W RF input power as a splitter and is capable of passing up to 1.2A DC current from input to output. It comes housed in a tiny 4x4mm QFN, giving designers both a new level of performance and the flexibility to add these capabilities almost anywhere on their PCB.
