When working on RF or microwave systems, precision and performance are everything. At Flexi RF Inc, we design our Vertical launch PCB connectors to deliver reliable, low-loss connections for systems that demand high accuracy and consistency. These connectors are vital in applications where every decibel matters, from test equipment to communication systems.

How a Vertical launch PCB connector supports consistent performance

A Vertical launch PCB connector allows signals to move directly from a coaxial interface onto the printed circuit board without significant distortion. This design minimises signal reflections and maintains consistent impedance, ensuring clear and stable performance across frequencies.

Here’s why these connectors are preferred in professional RF designs:

• Direct signal flow: Maintains minimal path deviation for better integrity.
• Compact structure: Saves space on high-density boards.
• Reduced loss: Ensures clean transmission from the source to the circuit.
• High reliability: Built to perform under demanding conditions.

At Flexi RF Inc, each connector is tested to meet strict RF standards, supporting applications that require frequencies of up to 40 GHz or more.

How a 3dB Attenuator Ensures Signal Balance

A 3dB Attenuator helps maintain the balance and control of signal strength within your circuit. It’s often used to prevent overpowering sensitive components or to match different system levels. Using a 3dB Attenuator with a Vertical launch PCB connector can stabilise your test setup and improve repeatability in measurements.

Benefits include:

• Improved matching: Maintains consistent impedance throughout the line.
• Signal protection: Prevents overloading sensitive RF devices.
• Ease of calibration: Simplifies test system adjustments.

By combining these two components, engineers achieve a more controlled and predictable RF environment, especially in testing and measurement setups.
