KRYTAR, founded by Thomas J. Russell in 1975, is a privately owned California corporation specializing in the manufacture of ultra broadband microwave components and test equipment for both commercial and military applications. The KRYTAR product line includes directional couplers, directional detectors, 3 dB hybrids, MLDD power dividers/combiners, detectors, terminations, coaxial adapters and a power meter. Our products cover the DC to 110 GHz frequency range.
The broadband design expertise at KRYTAR has created unique new designs, several of which are patented. KRYTAR has applied these designs to consistently introduce technologically advanced products with superior electrical performance and ruggedness.
Our modern facility houses a completely equipped machine shop, including CNC lathes and mills. The corporation also possesses all the electronic test equipment necessary for testing its products from DC to 67 GHz. Included in the test equipment is a Hewlett Packard 8510B Automatic Network Analyzer with 8515A (45 MHz - 26.5 GHz) and 8517A (45 MHz - 50.0 GHz) S-Parameter Test Sets and Agilent Technologies E8361A PNA Series Network Analyzer (10 MHz - 67 GHz).
The KRYTAR Quality Assurance Program is in accordance with
MIL-I-45208 including a calibration system per MIL-STD-45662. To ensure reliability and performance, the quality assurance system controls all phases of manufacturing: purchasing, machining, processes, assembling, testing and shipping.
KRYTAR has a commitment to technical excellence and customer satisfaction. These principles form the basis for the steady growth that has earned KRYTAR an enviable reputation in the microwave community.
KRYTAR Monopulse Comparators use KRYTAR’s high-performance 180-degree Hybrid Couplers providing super phase accuracy, amplitude imbalance, stability and repeatability all within a single compact package. KRYTAR’s technological advances provide excellent operating performance with this new family of Monopulse Comparators.
A Monopulse Comparator is a beamforming network used to feed a phased array of antenna elements. Its purpose is to control the direction of a beam, or beams, of radio transmission. KRYTAR Monopulse Comparators are the ideal choice for antenna array beamforming, high speed radar searching and tracking, multipath simulation and performance evaluation, and many other applications.
KRYTAR also offers complete engineering services for custom designs that meet or exceed your critical performance and/or packaging specifications.
