Microwave Precision
Fixed Attenuator
50Ω 2W DC to 20 GHz
RCAT-SERIES
The Big Deal
• Exceptionalpower handling of 2W
• Wide band width DC to 20 GHz
• Miniature size 2.25 mm x 2.25 mm x 1.1 mm Ceramic package
• Highly reliable and repeatable performance
Product Overview
RCAT attenuators are fixed value absorptive attenuators. The highly precision and repeatable monolithic
attenuator chip is processed using the most advanced semiconductor processing techniques. The Cu filled
through-die via’s and Cu metallization on the backside provides a very low thermal resistance path to
dissipate the attenuated power. The attenuator chip is packaged in an LTCC hermetic package utilizing fully
automated and highly reliable manufacturing processes.
