Description
The MAAA2000G is a broadband GaAs MESFET
MMIC voltage variable absorptive attenuator. Typical
applications are for WLAN IEEE 802.11a+b/g,
WiMAX IEEE 802.16, and MIMO. Other applications
include test equipment requiring ultra fast switching
speed.
The MAAA2000G is fabricated using a 1.0 micro gate
length GaAs MESFET process. The process features
full chip passivation for increased performance and
reliability.
