7-Bit 0.25dB Digital Step Attenuator 1MHz to 6GHz
F1958
Datasheet
Description
The F1958 is part of the Renesas Glitch-FreeTM family of DSAs optimized for the demanding requirements of Base Station (BTS) radio cards and numerous other applications. This device is offered in a compact 4 x 4 mm 24-pin package with 50Ω input and output impedance for ease of integration into the radio or RF system.
The F1958 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 attenuation levels. These accurate attenuation levels improve system SNR and/or ACLR by ensuring system gain is as close to the targeted level as possible.
