Mechanical Phase Shifters

Mechanical Phase Shifters
o DC to 18 GHz; Low Loss; Linear
o Self Locking - Internal mechanism eliminates
the need for a locking nut. Ideal for phase trimming in densely packaged systems with
minimum accessibility.
o EDGE LINE designs for ultra fine resolution
to 22 GHz
o COAXIAL designs for broadband low-loss
operation to 18 GHz
o STRIPLINE designs for lower cost applications
to 12 GHz
General Information
In this section of the catalog, each Phase Shifter is outlined utilizing individual data sheets containing product features, specifications, and outline drawings. These data sheets are preceded by a quick reference guide to help
you select the Phase Shifter(s) that fits your needs. The page number for each phase shifter data sheet is given
in the quick reference guide.
Aeroflex / Weinschel offers a variety of Mechanical Phase Shifter designs that are ideally suited for delay line
applications in optical and RF Networks. These designs provide linear adjustable phase shift in a very small inline coaxial packages with long mechanical cycle life. Models can also be easily adapted to motorized control
configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions about Phase Shifters . . .
166
Can you define the Characteristic Insertion Phase for a
Mechanical Phase Shifter?
How is the absolute phase shift calculated for Model
980 series?
Mechanical phase shifters have an inherent delay / Zero
phase shift even when sitting in the minimum position. That
phase is the Characteristic Insertion Phase and is provided
as a typical value.
The absolute phase shift at any desired frequency is equal
to the insertion phase plus the incremental adjustable
phase.
Insertion phase is considered the fixed value of the phase
shifter and is measured at the minimum setting.
The adjustable phase shift is realized in a total rotation of
approximately ¼ turn of the adjustment shaft/knob.
(minimum to maximum)
What is Incremental phase shift?
Phase vs. Frequency is a nominally linear response
Incremental phase shift is the adjustable amount of phase
at a given frequency, over and above the insertion phase.
Time Delay = Ư = pSec
2πf
Ư in radians, f in GHz
As frequency changes, phase shift change linearly, but
time delay remains the same.
