Description

         M/A-COM's AT10-0017 is a PIN diode based voltage variable attenuator. AT10-0017 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 fre-quency band, but exhibit excellent performance and repeatability over the entire specified frequency band. The AT10-0017 is ideally suited for wireless communications systems.
