Product families
Microsource products are organized around the functions that matter in real RF systems: generate a stable source, translate frequency, extend a band, shape the spectrum, and package the chain. Standard families help engineering teams compare options quickly, while the broader portfolio points stakeholders toward Microsource's real differentiator: custom microwave solutions built around the actual program.
What to expect
Each family page explains operating context, representative use cases, packaging considerations, and how the product fits into a larger RF chain, then points toward custom engineering when a catalog fit is not enough.
Start with your problem
Many teams know the system problem before they know the exact product family. Start with the architecture need, then narrow to the right component or subsystem path.
Decision path
Start with YIG oscillators, DROs, synthesizers, or the new low-jitter microwave clock source depending on tuning range, phase noise, and timing role.
Best fit when
YIG oscillators, DROs, synthesizers, and low-jitter clocking paths
Explore pathDecision path
Use the converter families when the architecture depends on a practical IF plan, receiver-side translation, or transmit-side up-conversion.
Best fit when
Linear up-converters, down-converters, and broader converter architectures
Explore pathDecision path
YIG tuned filters and related conditioning stages help shape the spectral environment around sensitive receiver or subsystem paths.
Best fit when
YIG tuned filters, non-linear multipliers, and signal-conditioning hardware
Explore pathDecision path
When the real requirement is a packaged subsystem, start with custom integrated microwave assemblies and engineering support rather than a single part number.
Best fit when
Custom integrated microwave assemblies and engineering-led adaptations

The product hub is arranged around the role each module plays in the signal chain, which makes it easier for engineers to narrow the choice and for stakeholders to understand the portfolio quickly.

View familyHow to start
Engineers can move faster when the request includes frequency range, tuning needs, power budget, environmental conditions, and interface constraints. Stakeholders benefit from the same details because they reduce revision cycles and clarify the right support path.
Step 1
Define the operating band, tuning span, and phase-noise target.
Step 2
Share package, interface, and environmental constraints early.
Step 3
Use the contact path for technical selection or program support.
