Description
M/A-COM's MAAV-007091-000100 is a PIN diode
based voltage variable attenuator. This device is in a
6mm square, 28 lead, plastic CSP package, suitable
for surface mounting on PCBs. 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 and UMTS
frequency bands, but exhibit excellent performance
and repeatability over the entire specified frequency
band. The MAAV-007091-000100 is ideally suited
for wireless communications systems.
