Description
The M/A-COM MAATSS0001 is a 0.5 dB step GaAs MMIC digital attenuator with 15.5 dB dynamic range in a low cost QSOP-16 (SSOP-16) package. It requires external DC blocking capacitors on the RF ports, positive supply voltage and five individual bit control voltages. It is particularly suited where high attenuation accuracy, low insertion loss and low intermodulation products are required. Typical applications include base stations, wireless data, and wireless local loop gain level control circuits.
