Amplifiers
Low Noise Amplifier
Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA) is used in the receiver chain for amplifying received RF signals. It’s function is to ensure
the weak RF signal can be amplified with very minimal noise added. TMYTEK’s low-noise amplifier (LNA) focuses on
the mmWave band for customer’s who are interested in mmWave transceiver and wireless applications. Our LNA’s key
feature is wide band coverage. Our standard LNAs cover the frequency range from 16 GHz to 40 GHz which are suitable
for numerous frequency band requirements. On top of that, they also have excellent noise performance and superior
gain. Some of our LNA’s application includes Point-to-Point radio, SATCOM and wireless communication systems.
Our LNAs are packaged in coaxial connectorized modules which means we have taken care of all the biasing network
including built-in voltage regulation, bias sequencing and reverse bias protection. This simplifies the use of LNA and
makes system integration a step easier.
Power Amplifier
Power Amplifiers (PA) is used in the transmitter chain for amplifying signals to be broadcasted. It’s function is to ensure
RF signal is large enough to be detected. TMYTEK’s power amplifiers (PA) is also made for broadband coverage similar to
our LNA products. Its focus is also on the mmWave band for customers who are interested in mmWave transceiver and
wireless applications. Our standard PAs cover the frequency range from DC to 40 GHz and they feature excellent gain,
high output power and exceptional noise performances. They are most suitable for customers looking for high gain, low
noise figure and wide band coverage amplifiers. This could be applicable to Point-to-Point radio, SATCOM and wireless
communication systems. Our PAs are packaged in coaxial connectorized modules which means we have taken care of all
the biasing network including built-in voltage regulation, bias sequencing and reverse bias protection. This simplifies the
use of PA and makes system integration a step easier.
Cryogenic Low Noise Amplifier
Microwave cryogenic low noise amplifiers (Cryo-LNAs) have been widely used in many applications which requires the
ultra-low receiver noise such as radio astronomy and quantum computing. These amplifiers are designed to operate at
very low temperatures such as 77 Kelvin (-196°C), 15 Kelvin (-258°C), and 4 Kelvin (-269°C). The adapted technologies
for designing these Cryo-LNAs are GaAs pHEMTs, InP HEMTs, and SiGe HBTs. In order to achieve the best noise
performance, all the transistor parameters should be modelled at the cryogenic temperature. TMYTEK has the capabilities
to design the Cryo-LNAs from MMICs to discrete circuits with our own cryogenic models. All the Cryo-LNAs are delivered
with extra precaution designed packages and protective materials are chosen in order to have the best heat sinking and
cooling capabilities.

Frequency Conversion
Frequency Multiplier
A frequency multiplier is a nonlinear device that is capable of producing an output signal that is at integer multiples
of the input signal frequency. For an integer multiple of two, it is also commonly known as ‘doubler’. The output of a
frequency multiplier is known as the ‘harmonic’ of the fundamental signal in which the ‘fundamental’ frequency is the
input frequency. Hence, when selecting a frequency multiplier, we are often interested in their conversion loss between
the fundamental and the desired harmonic, suppression of undesired harmonics, and power generated at the output.
TMYTEK’s mmWave multipliers cover the RF frequency range from 15 to 45 GHz and are packaged in our own miniature
designed package.
Mixers
A RF/mmWave mixer translates the input signal frequency to an output signal of a different frequency. The translation
can be either from a lower frequency to a higher frequency or vice versa. It is worth noting that the important factors that
we look for in mixers are its’ conversion loss, multi-tone intermodulation products, single tone spurious products, and
isolations. These are all parameters that could affect the dynamic range of a RF/mmWave system. TMYTEK’s standard
mixers cover the frequency range from 10 to 86 GHz and have excellent conversion loss/gain. It is also packaged in our in
house designed connectorized modules which is very compact in size.
Up / Down Converters
TMYTEK’s up or down converters are built to customers’ needs. It offers great flexibility including the choices of internal
local oscillator (LO) as well as internal amplifier (including PA or LNA). It is custom made to provide our customers the
most suitable up / down converters for their applications. Some of these applications include Point-to-Point radio,
broadband communications, and RADAR applications. It is also excellent in performance as we take care of all the
internal circuitry including image rejection, LO or RF buffer, LO multiplications, filtering as well as all the bias networks.
TMYTEK also offers dual band up or down converters for some of our customers looking for both 28 GHz and 39 GHz
converters. Our up / down converters are offered in connectorized box for easy operation.

Digital Controlled Attenuators (DCA)
TMYTEK’s standard digital controlled attenuator operates in the frequency range up to 30 GHz. It is a 6 bit digital
attenuator capable of attenuating up to 31.5 dB with a minimum of 0.5 dB per step. Digital controlled attenuators can
be used in variety of applications including automotive, wireless (including 5G communication) and radar. Our DCA
is typically controlled by TTL but we also offer USB control as an option. The packaging of DCAs are in house designed
connectorized modules.
Digital Controlled Filters (DCF)
We are typically used to designing filters at our band of interest. But when there are more and more demands for
applications such as multi-band transceivers or multi-standard communication systems, it became crucial for us to
develop filters that can be used in multiple scenarios. This is why digital controlled filters became essential. TMYTEK
offers a wide selection of digital controlled filters including low pass filters, high pass filters and band pass filters. Our
DCF operates up to 18 GHz with excellent performances such as low insertion loss. Our DCF range from 4 to 9 bit control
and is typically controlled by TTL but we also offer USB control as an option. The packaging of DCFs are in house designed
connectorized modules.
Digital Controlled Phase Shifters (DPS)
TMYTEK’s digital controlled phase shifters are developed for use with the 5G beamforming system particularly in the 28
GHz band. The operating frequency ranges from 26.5 to 30.5 GHz with excellent phase and amplitude accuracy across
the nominal frequency band. The phase shifter is a 6 bit control covering 360˚ with 5.625˚ per step. The attenuation
control is 5 bit; each step is 0.7 dB with a maximum of 21.7 dB attenuation. Our DPS is a passive device and it follows
the T/R structure and exhibits only two RF ports and the control port. Our DPS is typically controlled by USB. The
packaging of DPSs are in house designed connectorized modules.
Digital Controlled Switches and Matrices (DSW)
TMYTEK’s digital controlled switch series covers a broad range of switches including standard frequency switches, such
as SPDT, SP4T and SP8T and switch matrices, such as 2x2 matrix, 4x4 matrix and 8x8 matrix. They all have one advantage
in common and that is wideband coverage. The standard frequency switches cover the frequency range from 50 MHz all
the way up to 50 GHz while the switch matrices covers up to 18 GHz. Some of the important parameters worth noting
is that they have low insertion loss and excellent isolation. We also offer special edition switch matrix which includes
all of the switching features of the 2x2 matrix and on top of that the input ports and the output ports are all internally
switchable. Our DSWs are typically controlled by USB. The packaging of DSWs are in house designed connectorized

APLL™
TMYTEK’s exclusive patented design Adaptive Phase-Locked Loop (APLLTM) system is a signal source development tool
made to help Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) developers the ability to characterize VCO phase noise in different
locking bandwidths. It is the first system in the world designed specifically to measure VCO reliably and repeatably.
It is also a tool for phase-locked loop (PLL) or phase-locked oscillator (PLO) developers to foresee the performance of
VCO in phase-locked loop by providing the feature to lock any VCO with any KVCO and voltage tuning range. It is used in
combination with any spectrum or noise figure analyzers. Some of our APLL™’s key features are summarized below.
APLL™ Key Features:
• Recover phase noise of VCO reliably and repeatably.
• Accurately measure the phase noise within the minimum frequency window span.
• Simplify PLL design with tunable bandwidth and phase noise
• Ability to adjust phase noise levels for both noisy and noiseless applications
• Works with all existing spectrum and noise figure analyzers
With the key features listed above, our APLL™ is able to ease VCO design with better control over the final performances.
This would save time and money for our customers for a faster design turnaround and delivery. The APLL is easily
powered by industry standard wall outlet 110 VAC with ultra low internal noise circuitry (optional 220 VAC is also
available).
