Which Is Better: Directional Coupler or Tapper?
May , 08 2025
In RF and microwave systems, power distribution is a critical aspect that directly impacts system performance, reliability, and design flexibility. Two of the most commonly used passive components for signal splitting and power monitoring are directional couplers and tappers. While they serve similar purposes in many systems, they differ significantly in structure, application, and performance. Un...

Why Use a Hybrid Coupler? Understanding Its Role in RF Systems
May , 14 2025
In RF and microwave systems, signal routing, splitting, and combining require high-precision components that minimize losses and distortion. One such essential component is the hybrid coupler. But why use a hybrid coupler instead of standard power dividers or directional couplers? This article explores the purpose, benefits, and applications of hybrid couplers—especially in systems where signal ph...
