Product Details
The HMC346ALP3E is an absorptive Voltage Variable Attenuator (VVA) in low cost leadless surface mount plastic package operating from DC - 14 GHz. It features an on-chip reference attenuator for use with an external op-amp to provide simple single voltage attenuation control, 0 to -5V. The device is ideal in designs where an analog DC control signal must control RF signal levels over a 30 dB amplitude range.
Applications
- Basestation Infrastructure
- Fiber Optics & Broadband Telecom
- Microwave Radio & VSAT
- Military Radios, Radar, & ECM
- Test Instrumentation
