GENERAL DESCRIPTION
In addition to providing low insertion loss, the F2250 provides excellent linearity performance over its entire voltage control and attenuation range. Other features include the VMODE pin allowing either positive or negative voltage control slope vs attenuation and multi-directional operation meaning the RF input can be applied to either RF1 or RF2 pins. Control voltage ranges from 0V to 3.6V using either positive or negative control voltage slope. COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE F2250 provides extremely low insertion loss and superb IP3, IP2, Return Loss and Slope Linearity across the control range. Comparing to the previous state-of-theart for silicon VVAs this device is better as follows: Insertion Loss @ 2000MHz: 1.4dB vs. 2.8dB Insertion Loss @ 6000MHz: 2.7dB vs. 7dB Maximum Attenuation Slope: 33dB/Volt vs. 53dB/Volt Minimum Return Loss up to 6000MHz: 12.5dB vs. 7dB Minimum Output IP3: 31dBm vs. 15dBm Minimum Input IP2: 87dBm vs. 80dBm Maximum Operating Tem...
