Description

The HMC424ALP3E is a broadband, 6-bit, gallium arsenide (GaAs), digital attenuator in low cost, leadless surface-mount package with a 31.5 dB attenuation control range in 0.5 dB steps.The HMC424ALP3E offers excellent attenuation accuracy of ?(0.2 dB + 4% of attenuation state) and high input linearity with a typical insertion loss of less than 4 dB over the specified frequency range from 0.1 GHz to 13.0 GHz. The attenuator bit values are 0.5 dB (LSB), 1 dB, 2 dB, 4 dB, 8 dB, and 16 dB for a total attenuation of 31.5 dB with a ?0.5 dB typical step error.The device allows a user to program the attenuation state via six parallel control inputs toggled between 0 V and VEE.The HMC424ALP3E operates with a single negative supply voltage from ?3 V to ?5 V, and requires an external level shifter to interface with a CMOS/transistor to transistor logic (TTL) interface.The HMC424ALP3E comes in a RoHS compliant, compact, 3 mm ? 3 mm, 16-lead lead frame chip scale package (LFCSP).Applications Cellular infrastructure Microwave radios and very small aperture terminals (VSATs) Test equipment and sensors Intermediate frequency (IF) and RF designs Military and space
