DESCRIPTION
This document describes the specification for the F1956 Digital Step Attenuator. COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE The F1956 offers very high reliability due to its construction from a monolithic silicon die in a QFN package. The insertion loss is very low with minimal distortion. Additionally, the device is designed to have extremely accurate attenuations levels. These accurate attenuation level improves system SNR and/or ACLR by ensuring system gain is as close to targeted level as possible. Also, the very fast settling time in parallel mode is ideal for fast switching systems. Finally, the device is Glitch-FreeTM with less than 2dB of ringing across the attenuation range in stark contrast to competing DSAs that glitch as much as 10dB during MSB state changes.FEATURES
