SURFACE MOUNT–CERAMIC
ATTENUATOR, PIN DIODE
0.8–4 GHz GENERAL INFORMATION
The PI-800 Se r ies atte n uators are pa r t of the ne w Surfpac product line featur ing good inte r modulation per f ormance compared to their GaAs counte r par ts f or PCS/cellular base station use. In addition, the PIN diodes of f er good p o wer-handling capabilities and are less sensitive to electrostatic discharge pro b lems. These f eatures are impo r tant con side r ations in base station applications where the effects of antennarelated RF s witching and indirect lightning-inducedv oltage spi k es are present. PIN diode components a h ve inherent ad v antageso ver the GaAs alte r natives at PCS/cellular frequencie s .
