CMD280
CMD280 is DC-30 GHz 5-bit Digital Attenuator manufactured by Custom MMIC.
Features
- Ultra wideband performance
- Low insertion loss
- Wide attenuation range
- Small die size
Description
The CMD280 is negative controlled, wideband Ga As MMIC 5-bit digital attenuator die which operates from DC to 30 GHz. Each bit of the attenuator is controlled by a single voltage of either 0 V or
- 5 V. The attenuator bit values are 0.5 (LSB), 1, 2, 4, and 8 d B, for a total attenuation of 15.5 d B. The CMD280 has a low insertion loss of 3 d B at 10 GHz and the attenuation accuracy is typically 0.1 d B step error. The CMD280 is a 50 ohm matched design which eliminates the need for RF port matching. The CMD280 offers full passivation for increased reliability and moisture protection.
