Description

M/A-COM's AT65-0008 is a PIN diode based voltage variable attenuator. It is packaged in an 8 lead small outline narrow body plastic, surface mount package. The attenuator has linear operating power and intercept point levels higher than GaAs FET MMIC based voltage variable attenuators. The VVA is suited for use where low distortion and high linear operating power are required. The device AT65-0008 operating frequency is selected in the 900 to 2500 MHz fre-quency band by defining the length of the T/4 (a quarter wave transmission line at the operating frequency) con-nected to pins 5 and 6.
