Richardson RFPD Attenuator - Digitally Controlled MAATSS0015

MACOM's MAATSS0015 is a 4-bit, 1-dB step GaAs MMIC digital attenuator in a lead-free SOIC 16-lead surface mount plastic package. The MAATSS0015 is ideally suited for use where high accuracy, fast switching, very low power consumption and low intermodulation products are required. Typical applications include radio, cellular, and wireless LANs, GPS equipment and other gain/level control circuits. The MAATSS0015 is fabricated with a monolithic GaAs MMIC using a mature 1-micron process. The process features full chip passivation for increased performance and reliability.
