Ultra-Broadband DC Block PSPL5509 Datasheet The PSPL5509 DC Block is an ultra-broadband inner conductor DC block with a flat frequency response over many decades up to 50 GHz. It is available in a choice of 2.92 mm or 2.4 mm connectors. The PSPL5509 with option 16V optimizes low frequency performance, the PSPL5509 with option 50V optimizes return loss Key Performance Specifications From 7 kHz to 50 GHz Bandwidth 5 ps Risetime 1 dB Insertion Loss to 40 GHz Available with 16 VDC or 50 VDC Specifications Parameter PSPL5509 option 16V PSPL5509 option 50V Capacitance 0.02 F 500 pF Voltage 16 V maximum 50 V maximum Insertion Loss (all connector types) (2.4 mm only) <1 dB typical, f < 40 GHz 2 dB max. at 40 GHz 3 dB max. at 50 GHz Low Frequency (-3 dB) 7 kHz Risetime (10%-90%) 5.1 ps Delay 126 ps Impedance 50 Return Loss See Typical Performance Dimensions 2.92 mm 2.4 mm 35.1 x 15.9 x 7.9 mm 36.7 x 15.9 x 7.9 mm Warranty 1 Year 3 MHz Note: Parameters listed are typical values.
