0.1 GHz to 40 GHz, 31 dB, 5-Bit Digital Attenuator Data Sheet HMC-C584 FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION 1.0 dB LSB steps to 31 dB The HMC-C584 is a 0.1 GHz to 40 GHz, 5-bit, gallium arsenide Single positive control line per bit (GaAs) IC digital attenuator housed in a miniature hermetic 1.0 dB typical bit error module. This wideband attenuator features 7 dB typical insertion Input IP3: 43 dBm loss, 43 dBm input IP3, and bit values of 1 dB (LSB), 2 dB, 4 dB, CMOS-compatible control 8 dB, and 16 dB for a total attenuation range of 31 dB. The Hermetically sealed module attenuation accuracy of the device has a 1.0 dB typical step error. Field replaceable K-type connectors Five control voltage inputs, toggled between 0 V and 5 V, are used Operating temperature: 55C to +85C to select each attenuation state. Removable K-type connectors can be detached to allow direct connection of the input/output APPLICATIONS pins of the module to a microstrip or coplanar circuit.
