Abstract
An alignment frame for a passive radio frequency ferrite isolator or circulator aligns ferrite discs with the circuit and the housing in which these components are encased. The fragile leads of the circuit are supported by the alignment frame, thereby creating a more durable and robust package design for handling and customer product interfacing. No adhesive is used, thereby reducing manufacturing time and increasing reliability of the device.
