MACOM's MAADSS0012 is a 1-bit, 21 dB step attenuator. This GaAs MMIC digital attenuator is packaged in an ultra small lead free 2 mm 8-Lead PDFN surface mount package. The MAADSS0012 digital attenuator will work with any power source operating between 2.8 and 5.0 volts. This single bit attenuator is ideally suited for use in wide band systems, up to 8.0 GHz where good linearity and low insertion loss are required. Typical applications for the MAADSS0012 attenuator include WiMAX (802.16), Mesh Networks, Multiband repeaters and other linear systems.
