Cool-Pad CPR7154 thermal interface material dispenses like a thermal pad, but is said to show characteristics of a grease or gel when device temperatures increase to above 45°C.

Kyocera AVX DB0402 hybrid couplers provide 3dB signal splitting with 90° phase shift across 3,000–4,100MHz. Engineered using multilayer thin-film tech. Supports high power handling (1W), tight phase/amplitude balance and repeatability in a 0402 low-profile package. Compatible with reflow and automated assembly. Targeted at compact, high-frequency wireless systems including 5G/6G, GPS, Satcom and industrial IoT.

Vishay CHA0402 thin-film chip resistor comes in an 0402 case size. Delivers stable performance up to 50GHz. Engineered for minimal reactance and nearly flat impedance-to-resistance behavior. Maintains high-frequency stability after AEC-Q200 stress testing. Comes in resistance values from 10Ω to 500Ω.
