Directional Coupler
The dual directional coupler provides RF samples proportional to forward and
reflected RF power to be converted to DC voltages for monitoring. These analog
voltages are converted for processing using analog-to-digital converters and
provide the control system with valuable data for monitoring purposes. Output
power should be set following the operating procedure found elsewhere in this
manual. The directional coupler uses Type N connectors on lower power systems
and 7-16 DIN connectors are used for increased power handling capability. Other
connectors are available upon request – this connector is typically the RF output
connector on the back panel of the enclosure. On higher power systems, high
power handling connectors are used, especially in the overall output combiner.
On lower power systems, the coupler is typically based on microstrip architecture
on the exciter circuit board.
