Description
M/A-COM's AT10-0017 is a PIN diode based voltage variable
attenuator. This device is in a SOIC-16, wide body plastic surface
mount package. These attenuators have linear operating power
and input intercept point levels 15 - 20 dB better than GaAs FET
MMIC voltage variable attenuators. They are ideally suited for
use where low distortion, high linear operating power and high
dynamic range are required. These devices are optimized for the
PCS frequency band, but exhibit excellent performance and
repeatability over the entire specified frequency band. The AT10-
0017 is ideally suited for wireless communications systems.
