Attenuator with strong performance for RF and IF applications - Low insertion loss and high linearity Insertion loss below 2.0 dB (typical) combined with an IIP3 of +54 dBm helps preserve signal strength while maintaining good distortion performance in multi-signal environments. - Broad frequency coverage Operating from DC to 3.8 GHz supports a wide range of RF and IF paths and enables use across multiple bands and setups. - Precise attenuation control Typical attenuation step size error is ±0.25 dB, providing repeatable, predictable level adjustments for calibration and test workflows. Key benefits - Maintains signal integrity with low loss while handling high linearity requirements - Flexible compatibility for RF and IF systems operating up to 3.8 GHz - Reliable and repeatable attenuation settings for consistent measurements and tuning Practical use scenarios - RF front end in wireless transceivers Use the attenuator to set and stabilize signal levels in receivers or transmit paths without introducing excessive distortion, even with multi-tone inputs. - Lab measurement and calibration setups Employ in test benches to sweep and calibrate gain and dynamic range across DC to 3.8 GHz with precise step control. - Broadband receiver and downconverter testing Apply in evaluation rigs to emulate varying input conditions while preserving linearity, enabling accurate assessment of downstream stages.
