[ About ]

Dynamac Microwave has pioneered Multilayer-Air filter, the world’s first and only filter miniaturization and manufacturing technology for fabrication of radio frequency (RF) filters in zero-cost air dielectric medium. This technology breakthrough, enabled by Dynamac Microwave’s proprietary Fractional Element Filter Architecture (FEFA) algorithm, has staggering economic, scientific, technological, and environmental implications. Dynamac Microwave’s groundbreaking FEFA Multilayer-Air filter technology impacts the entire RF filter industry and market by covering the entire frequency spectrum from 1 MHz to 100 GHz and supporting all applications from milliwatts to kilowatts. It reduces size and weight of high power filters by 60-75% and as much as 90% for sub-6 GHz 5G infrastructure and aerospace & defense systems; it improves signal transfer efficiency by 30-50%, and reduces cost by 60-70% across the board.

Technology Overview

The Indispensable Role of RF Filters

What exactly is this technology that drives our current day-to-day communications infrastructure?

  • RF filters are used in every wireless and  communication device and system in existence

    • Billions of RF filters are sold every year

  • RF filters allow a desired frequency/signal to pass and attenuate all others supporting applications including

    • Spectrum management and Signal Conditioning

    • Mitigation of interference and noise

  • Filters vary from large cast aluminum and CNC machined units for cellular infrastructure applications to chip filters for mobile phones and a wide range of consumer devices

    • $100’s to sub $.50

    • 4G smartphones use more than 40 RF filters

    • The number of RF filters in 5G smartphones is projected to exceed 70

  • The current market size of all RF filter products is estimated to be ~$15 Billion

What are the pain points inherent in legacy systems?

The Challenges with Current RF Filter Offerings

  • Large Size

    • Air cavity and waveguide filters are bulky particularly at low frequencies

  • High Weight

    • High power air cavity filters can weigh as much as 30 pounds

  • High Insertion Loss (Increased Power Consumption)

    • Signal attenuation through filter = energy waste

  • High Cost

    • High performance low-loss RF air cavity/waveguide filters cost in the hundreds of dollars

  • Low Power Filters: Limited Frequency Range, Limited Bandwidth, High Insertion Loss, High Cost

    • BAW and SAW filters have reached their performance limit:

      • BAW (Range Limit: 6 GHz) (Power Handling: 1W)

      • SAW (Range Limit: 2 GHz) (Power Handling: <1W)

      • High Insertion Loss

    • Multilayer Ceramic and PTFE Filters

      • Range Limit: 10-15 GHz

      • High Insertion Loss

      • High Cost

What makes Dynamac Microwave’s proprietary FEFA algorithm the best solution for challenges in the RF filter marketplace?

The Holy Grail of RF Filters

  • 65-90% smaller and lighter weight than current expensive high power machined air cavity and waveguide filters.

  • 50-75% lower cost than current high power machined air cavity and waveguide filters.

  • 40-50% lower cost than SAW, BAW, and multilayer ceramic and PTFE filters.

  • 30-65% lower insertion loss than current filters (SAW, BAW, multilayer ceramic and PTFE, air cavity, and waveguide filters).

  • Scalable Power: milliwatts to kilowatts

  • Scalable Frequency: 1 MHz to 100 GHz

  • Scalable Bandwidth: 1 kHz to multi-GHz bandwidth

  • Adaptable Packaging: From miniature LGA, QFP, QFN, to large custom high power SMD packages to a wide range of packageless leadless, leaded, and connectorized fusion bonded Multilayer-Air filter modules
