HMC346AMS8GE 衰减器 IC

HMC346AMS8GE

GaAs MMIC SMT VOLTAGE-VARIABLE  ATTENUATOR, DC - 8 GHz

General Description HMC346AMS8GE

The HMC346AMS8GE is absorptive Voltage Variable  Attenuators (VVA) in 8 lead surface-mount packages  operating from DC - 8 GHz. It features an on-chip reference  attenuator for use with an external op-amp to  provide simple single voltage attenuation control, 0 to  -5V. The device is ideal in designs where an analog  DC control signal must control RF signal levels over a  30 dB amplitude range. Applications include AGC circuits  and temperature compensation of multiple gain  stages in microwave point-to-point and VSAT radios.
