Description

The HMC802ALP3E is a broadband bidirectional 1-bitGaAs IC digital attenuator in a low cost leadless sur-face mount package. This single positive control linedigital attenuator utilizes off chip AC ground capac-itors for near DC operation, making it suitable for awide variety of RF and IF applications. Covering DCto 10 GHz, the insertion loss is less than 3 dB typicaland attenuation accuracy is excellent at ±0.6 dB typ-ical. The attenuator also features a high IIP3 of +55dBm. One TTL/CMOS control input is used to selectthe attenuation state and a single Vdd bias of +5V isrequired. Applications Test equipment and sensors ISM, MMDS, WLAN, WiMAX, WiBro Microwave radio & VSAT Cellular infrastructure
