Electronic Phase Shifter

Electronic phase shifters are devices used in electrical and electronic circuits to alter the phase of a signal. They are commonly used in communication systems, radar systems, and audio equipment.

In the context of the supply class "Filters And Networks" in the supply group "Electrical And Electronic Equipment Components," electronic phase shifters are components that are specifically designed to be used in filters and networks. These phase shifters are used to manipulate the phase response of signals passing through the filter or network.

Electronic phase shifters can be implemented using various techniques, such as analog or digital methods. Analog phase shifters typically use passive components like resistors, capacitors, and inductors to introduce a phase shift in the signal. Digital phase shifters, on the other hand, use digital signal processing techniques to achieve the desired phase shift.

The specific characteristics and specifications of electronic phase shifters can vary depending on the application and requirements. Some phase shifters may offer a fixed phase shift, while others may provide adjustable or variable phase shifting capabilities. The phase shift range, frequency range, and insertion loss are some of the parameters to consider when selecting an electronic phase shifter for a particular application.

Overall, electronic phase shifters play a crucial role in signal processing and are essential components in filters and networks used in electrical and electronic equipment.
