Nidec Copal (USA) Corporation Attenuators E-TA2012 T 2DB N2

The E-TA2012 T 2DB N2 is a thermal variable attenuator designed for RF applications, offering a nominal attenuation of 2 dB. It operates within a frequency range of DC to 3 GHz and is characterized by a power rating of 63 mW. The device features a flat voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) and a linear attenuation characteristic with respect to temperature fluctuations, making it suitable for temperature compensation in microwave high power amplifiers. The attenuator is RoHS compliant and has an operating temperature range of -40 ¬8C to +100 ¬8C. It exhibits a temperature coefficient of attenuation of -0.0088 dB/dB/¬8C, which helps maintain performance stability across varying temperatures. The E-TA2012 T 2DB N2 is available in taping packaging for automated assembly, with 1000 pieces per reel. Engineers considering this product should note its reliability under environmental stress tests, including thermal shock and load life, which demonstrate minimal attenuation variation under specified conditions.
