Description
M/A-COM's AT-246 is a GaAs MMIC matched 1 bit attenuator in a low cost plastic MSOP-8 package. It is designed to be a building block for a single step attenuator by placing a resistor across RF1-RF2. Attenuation levels of 10 to 20 dB with flat response are achievable from DC to 3 GHz. The AT-246 is ideally suited for circuits where fast switching, very low power consumption and low intermodulation products are required. Typical applications include gain/level and sensitivity control in radio and cellular equipment, wireless LAN's, GPS equipment and other gain/level control circuits. The AT-246 is fabricated using a mature 1-micron gate length GaAs MESFET process. The process features full chip passivation for increased performance and reliability.
