General Description
The TriQuint TGL2616 is a 5-bit digital attenuator
MMIC design using TriQuint’s TQPHT15 0.15 um
GaAs pHEMT process. The TGL2616 is ideally
suited for a variety of wideband phased array
applications, including commercial and military
radars, satellite-based communication systems and
electronic warfare.
The TGL2616 provides a 5-bit digital attenuator
function with a nominal 4.2 dB insertion loss and
RMS attenuation error of better than 0.6 dB over a
bandwidth of 10-20 GHz.
The TGL2616 operates with a control and reference
voltage of 3.3 to 5 V. Each device is RF tested on-
wafer to ensure performance compliance. The
device is available in die form.
Lead-free and RoHS compliant.
Evaluation Boards available on request.
