1) Supporting Medical Research
Renaissance Electronics has provided several
broadband Circulators (225 to 400 MHz) to the Department of Radiation
and Oncology at a major US university. By working directly with their
engineering department, we have been able to fulfill some unique
performance needs at increased power levels. The university, also a research and
development center, is working on a spectrometer for 3D Conformal Radiation
Therapy. The goal of 3D conformal radiotherapy is to
shape the spatial distribution of the prescribed radiation dose so that
it matches closely to the shape of the target region (cancerous cells),
with minimal radiation incidence on the surrounding healthy tissue.
Renaissance Electronics was pleased to support this medical
research effort as it dovetails with our Culture Value Points, one of
which is to improve personal health and promote healthy environments.
See our
3A2BC
data sheet for more information on the broadband
Circulator.

CTIA Wireless 2007 – Orlando, FL
At the end of March, Renaissance Electronics exhibited
its RF Subsystem product line at the CTIA Wireless Show in Orlando, FL.
The show was a resounding success, with Renaissance being one of the
few companies actually exhibiting RF hardware. We thank
those who visited our booth and look forward to seeing you
in Las Vegas for CTIA Wireless 2008!
Participation in CTIA, MTT-S and other industry
forums demonstrates Renaissance's vision of being the World's preferred
supplier of RF products.

400 MHz Family of Combiners/Dividers
Renaissance Electronics is pleased to announce its 400 MHz
family of combiners and dividers. These units range from 2 to 16-way and
are
available in either high-performance or high-volume models.
Our high-performance models use high-end materials which allow for
reduced size and low loss while handling power levels over 1 kW. Our high-volume units maintain very high uniformity and
reliability through the use of a highly efficient, cost effective design.
Please contact Shane Delmore for more information.

DAC/ADC Switch Matrix
Renaissance
Electronics has received follow-on orders for its DAC/ADC Switch Matrix. This unit is a unique DC to 500
MHz Switching Matrix with 2 outputs and 6 inputs.
The unit supports the high level of integration required during
qualification testing for both digital and analog assemblies operating
at microwave frequencies. The convergence of digital and microwave
frequencies are achieved through the use of state-of-the-art high
frequency relays and governed by a GUI software that can be installed
and integrated for any ATE application.
Channel to channel isolation on the unit is 70 dB and insertion loss is
less than 0.4 dB.
Please contact Mike Snee with any questions or to discuss
your application.

Cascading
Circulators
Renaissance has composed an application note regarding
cascading circulators for duplexing applications. In this White Paper,
Dr. Anuj Srivastava explains that in certain cases, it becomes cost
effective to cascade multiple single junction circulators rather than to
use dual- or triple-junction units when a common antenna is connected to
the transmitter and receiver. Design constraints and
expected performance specifications are also included in this White
Paper.
Be sure to read the full article in the June issue of
Microwave Product Digest.
Technology Driven and Customer Focused – That’s Renaissance Electronics!
