Low-PIM coaxial quick release adapter for linearity and power capacity testing

Abstract

The invention discloses a low-PIM coaxial quick-release adapter for linearity and power capacity testing. The low-PIM coaxial quick-release adapter comprises a coaxial section and a clamp for fixing aconductor, wherein the clamp is provided with a clamping groove which is used for clamping a planar microwave circuit with one end being inserted into the clamping groove through a fastening bolt, the end face of the coaxial section is provided with metal contact elastic pieces which are arranged up and down, and the contact elastic pieces are connected with corresponding protrusions on the end face of the coaxial section. After the coaxial section is arranged in a coaxial hole of the clamp, a contact piece fastening bolt arranged on the clamp can clamp the contact elastic pieces and the planar microwave circuit, so that the contact elastic pieces are in contact with a signal line and a ground plane of the planar microwave circuit, and the point contact connection between the coaxial signal line and the ground line and between the signal line and the ground line of the planar microwave circuit is realized. The connecting reliability of the connecting end face can be ensured, and the low-PIM characteristic of the connecting end face is ensured.
