Feature
Advantages
Supports a wide array of applications including wireless cellular, microwave Communications, satellite,
Defense and aerospace, medical broadband and optic applications.
Wideband operation, DC to 18 GHz
Small Size and simple to use
(2 mm x 2 mm)
As a single chip solution, the YATꢀA series occupies less board space than a
“T” or “Pi” pad configuration, and
ensures repeatable performance over wide frequency ranges.
High Power, Up to 1W
High power handling in a small size package.
Wide range of nominal attenuation values
0 to 10 dB (in 1 dB steps), and 12, 15, 20,
and 30 dB
Small increment offering enables circuit designer to change attenuation values without motherboard redesign
making the YATꢀA series ideal for select at test application.
Low Inductance, repeatable transitions, excellent thermal path make the YATꢀA series an ideal solution as an
alternative to “do it yourself” resistor based attenuators.
