RoHS Compliant RF Isolators and Circulators for Medical Devices

　　In the realm of medical technology, where patient safety and diagnostic precision are paramount, RF isolators and circulators must meet dual imperatives: uncompromising signal integrity and strict environmental compliance. Our RoHS compliant RF isolators and circulators—engineered for 1MHz to 60GHz medical applications—merge lead-free, halogen-free materials with ultra-low interference performance, ensuring they excel in MRI suites, surgical theaters, and portable diagnostic tools while adhering to the strictest global environmental standards.

　　Core Technologies: Where Compliance Meets Clinical Precision

　　RoHS 2.0 Compliant Materials Ecosystem

　　Utilizing tin-silver-copper (Sn-Ag-Cu) solder alloys and nickel-free ferrite composites, these devices eliminate all restricted substances under RoHS 2.0 (EU 2011/65/EU), with lead (Pb) and mercury (Hg) levels <1ppm—verified by SGS testing. The medical-grade PEEK housing (ISO 10993-1 certified) ensures no leachable toxins, making them safe for use in patient-contact environments such as wearable monitors.

　　Ultra-Low EMI Design for Diagnostic Accuracy

　　Through a proprietary helical ferrite structure, insertion loss is minimized to <0.2dB at 1.5GHz (MRI frequency bands), while isolation ≥25dB suppresses electromagnetic interference (EMI) from nearby medical equipment. This precision ensures MRI image signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) improves by 20%, reducing scan times without compromising diagnostic clarity.

　　Sterilization-Resistant Construction

　　The hermetically sealed (IP68) stainless steel housing withstands 100+ cycles of autoclaving (134℃ at 2bar) and chemical disinfection (70% isopropyl alcohol), maintaining electrical performance with <0.1dB insertion loss drift. This durability is critical for intraoperative RF ablation systems requiring frequent sterilization.

　　Medical Device Applications

　　MRI & Imaging Systems

　　In 3T and 7T MRI machines, our circulators isolate transmit/receive coils, preventing RF amplifier noise from corrupting imaging data. The RoHS-compliant design eliminates ferromagnetic impurities, ensuring no image artifacts—a requirement for oncology and neurological diagnostics.

　　RF Ablation & Therapy Devices

　　Cancer treatment systems utilize our isolators to direct 400-500kHz RF energy precisely to tumor sites, with VSWR ≤1.1:1 minimizing energy reflection. This reduces healthy tissue damage while meeting EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745 for biocompatibility.

　　Portable Ultrasound & Telemedicine

　　Battery-powered point-of-care ultrasound devices benefit from the 30% weight reduction (vs. non-compliant alternatives) and low power consumption (<50mW), extending battery life to 8+ hours. The compact form factor (12mm×12mm) fits seamlessly into handheld probes used in remote clinics.

　　Cardiac Rhythm Management

　　Implantable defibrillator programmers employ our low-frequency (1MHz) isolators to safely transmit programming signals through body tissue, with isolation ≥22dB preventing interference with pacemaker function.

　　Reliability & Regulatory Compliance

　　Dual-Certified for Global Markets

　　Compliant with RoHS 2.0 (10 substances restricted), REACH (197 SVHCs), and ISO 13485:2016 (medical device quality management). CE marked under MDR and FDA-listed (Class I) for use in medical electrical equipment.

　　Biocompatibility & Safety

　　Passes ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity) and ISO 10993-10 (irritation/sensitization) tests, ensuring no adverse biological response in patient-contact applications.

　　Long-Term Clinical Performance

　　Undergoes 5,000-hour accelerated aging at 85℃/85%RH, with insertion loss degradation <0.3dB—validated for 10-year service life in critical care equipment.

　　Future-Ready for Next-Gen Medical Tech

　　Next-generation devices will integrate RFID tags for traceability (per FDA UDI requirements) and temperature sensors to monitor sterilization cycles. We’re also developing 60GHz variants for high-resolution endoscopic imaging, enabling 4K video transmission with zero EMI interference.

　　Precision You Can Trust, Compliance You Can Verify
