11923A

11923A is a 1mm female connector launch designed to thread into a package or fixture housing to transition a microwave circuit from microstrip to coaxial connector. It is intended for use with 110GHz test systems such as the Keysight 8510XF. The 11923A comes pre-assembled, but the user is responsible for machining the part and installing the connector. The procedure describing the necessary geometry for the package and installation will be provided. The 11923A launch has a 1mm female connector on one end that has an air dielectric interface and is supported by a low-loss plastic bead. It also has a glass-to-metal seal interface on the opposite end that consists of a 0.162mm diameter pin that extends inside the package or fixture for connection onto a microwave circuit. The user makes the connection to the circuit card. If a quasi-hermetic seal is desired, epoxy may be applied to the threads of the launch prior to installation.

• Versatility for 85/110GHz 1mm test systems
• Creates a quasi-hermetic seal
• Insertion loss: 1.0dB, return loss: 16dB
• Maximum CW power: 6W
