  • Abstract
    A complete Transmit and Receive module for avionic and naval applications was developed and tested. Multifunction chips and ASIC component integration in new multi-layers technology (Roger 4003 /Cu/ FR4) were adopted in order to reduce cost, space, production life cycle and increase integration level. High performances in the Transmit mode was achieved using a 4W wideband amplifier and by minimizing circulator loss.
