MAAV-011017

Voltage Variable Attenuator, 32 dB Range

The MAAV-011017 is a wide band voltage variable attenuator with analog control. It is assembled in a lead-free 3 mm, 16 PQFN package. This device is ideally suited for use where high accuracy, very low power consumption, and low intermodulation products are required. VMODE is a control pin to select either a positive or negative slope to the attenuation vs. control voltage curve. When VMODE is high, there is a positive slope to the curve. There is a negative slope when VMODE is low. The part operates down to DC but the power handling degrades below 50 MHz. No DC blocks on RF pins are needed if the source and loads have a DC connection to ground.
