MAAVCC0002 Voltage Variable Absorptive Attenuator, 1700 - 2200 MHz Rev. V8 Features • • • • • • • • • • Functional Schematic Input IP3: +31 dBm Min (Full Attenuation Range) Input IP3 is 15 -20 dB Better than GaAs Linear Operation: +20 dBm Typ. Plastic, 28 Lead, 6 mm CSP, SMT Package 35 dB Dynamic Range (With 30 mA Bias Current) Single Control Voltage 50 ohm Impedance Linear Driver, DR65-0002, Available Test Boards are Available Tape and Reel Packaging Available Description M/A-COM's MAAVCC0002 is a PIN diode based voltage variable attenuator. This device is in a 6mm square, 28 lead, plastic CSP package, suitable for surface mounting on PCBs. These attenuators have linear operating power and input intercept point levels 15 - 20 dB better than GaAs FET MMIC voltage variable attenuators. They are ideally suited for use where low distortion, high linear operating power and high dynamic range are required. These devices are optimized for the PCS and UMTS frequency bands, but exhibit excellent performance and repeatability over the entire specified frequency band. The MAAVCC0002 is ideally suited for wireless communications systems.

Bias current may be applied to Pin 9 or 23. However, the unused pin must be isolated. 2. The exposed pad centered on the package bottom must be connected to RF and DC ground. (For PQFN packages) 3. It is preferable to ground all “NC” pins, except for the unused bias pin, which must be left open. 1 ADVANCED: Data Sheets contain information regarding a product M/A-COM Technology Solutions • North America Tel: 800.366.2266 / Fax: 978.366.2266 is considering for development.
