HMC812LC4

The HMC812LC4 is an absorptive Voltage Variable Attenuator (VVA) which operates from 5 - 30 GHz and is ideal in designs where an analog DC control signal must be used to control RF signal levels over a 30 dB amplitude range. It features two shunt-type attenuators which are controlled by two analog voltages, Vctrl1 and Vctrl2.

The features of HMC812LC4 are as follows: (1)Wide Bandwidth: 5 - 30 GHz; (2)Excellent Linearity: +25 dBm Input P1dB; (3)Wide Attenuation Range: 30 dB; (4)24 Lead Ceramic 4x4mm SMT Package: 16mm2.

The electrical characteristics of the HMC812LC4 are: (1)Insertion Loss: 2dB at 5 - 16 GHz, 3dB at 16 - 24 GHz, 4dB at 24 - 30 GHz; (2)Attenuation Range: 30 dB; (3)Input Return Loss: 12 dB; (4)Output Return Loss: 8 dB; (5)Input Power for 1 dB Compression (any attenuation): 25 dBm; (6)Input Third Order Intercept(Two-tone Input Power = 10 dBm Each Tone): 28 dBm.
