GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The D3DD30F is a high performance directional coupler in a surface mount package. This low profile coupler handles
up to 200 watts of CW power. The D3DD30F is designed for those demanding applications where high power, low loss
and excellent directivity are required.
The D3DD30F is manufactured with materials that have thermal expansion characteristics compatible with industry
standard board materials like RO3003, RO4350, FR4 and others. The couplers are available in a RoHS compliant finish
and packaged in tape and reel.
