Smiths Interconnect, a leading provider of technically differentiated electronic components, subsystems, microwave and radio frequency products extends its offering of high frequency wire-bondable chip terminations with the release of its new HR-CTX Series, a small, easy-to-implement, high-reliability product qualified for space applications.

HR-CTX 

The new HR-CTX high frequency termination Series offers excellent broadband performance up to 64GHz and unrivalled power rating capability up to 5 Watts in a compact 0404 package. Its four times smaller footprint allows customers to save space and weight on the board, while the total thin film design optimized on Aluminum Nitride offers a high power dissipation.
