General Description
The HMC802LP3E is a broadband bidirectional 1-bit
GaAs IC digital attenuator in a low cost leadless
surface mount package. This single positive control
line digital attenuator utilizes off chip AC ground
capacitors for near DC operation, making it suitable
for a wide variety of RF and IF applications. Covering
DC to 10 GHz, the insertion loss is less than 3 dB
typical and attenuation accuracy is excellent at ±0.6
dB typical. The attenuator also features a high IIP3
of +55 dBm. One TTL/CMOS control input is used to
select the attenuation state and a single Vdd bias of
+5V is required.
