AV101-12LF

• +50 dBm IP3 Typical
• Low Loss 1 dB Typical
• Attenuation 30 dB Typical
• Good VSWR <1.5:1 Typical
• Small SOIC-8 Package

The AV101-12LF is a current controlled, variable attenuator from Skyworks series of HIP3 components. It is designed for meeting the wide dynamic range demanded in spread spectrum, wireless base station applications. A monolithic quadrature hybrid is teamed with a silicon PIN diode pair in a plastic surface mount package, cutting down the size and assuring consistency from part to part.

Features of the AV101-12LF are:(1)50 dBm IP3 typical;(2)low loss 1 dB typical;(3)attenuation 30 dB typical;(4)good VSWR <1.5:1 typical;(5)small SOIC-8 package;(6)available lead (Pb)-free, RoHS-compliant MSL-1 @ 260 °C per JEDE C J-STD-020.

The absolute maximum ratings and electrical specifications(at 25 °C)of the AV101-12LF can be summarized as:(1):RF input power is 0.5 W CW, 4 W @ 12.5% duty cycle;(2):control current is 50 mA per diode;(3):operating temp erature ranges from-40 °C to +85 °C;(4):storage temperature ranges from-65 °C to +150 °C; (5):maximum rever se diode voltage is-10 V;(6):electrostatic discharge is 125 V.Electrical specifications:(1):input signal frequency is 0.7 GHz min and 1GHz max;(2):insertion loss (0 mA control current) is 1dB typ and 1.5 dB max;(3):attenuation at 3.0 mA control current is 18.5dB min and 25 dBdB max;(4):VSWR all ports is 1.5 typ and 1.8 max;(5):input 3rd order intercep t is 47dBm min and 50dBm typ;(6): group delay is 0.9ns typ and 1.2 ns max.
