HMC1018LP4E
v01.1211
1.0 dB LSB GaAs MMIC 5-BIT DIGITAL
ATTENUATOR, 0.1 - 30 GHz
The HMC1018LP4E contains a 3-wire SPI compatible digital interface (SERIN, CLK, LE). The serial control interface
is activated when S/A is kept high. The 5-bit serial word must be loaded MSB first as a 6-bit word with the first
bit ignored. The positive-edge sensitive CLK and LE requires clean transitions. If mechanical switches are used,
sufficient debouncing should be provided. When LE is high, 5-bit data in the serial input register is transferred to the
attenuator. When LE is high CLK is masked to prevent data transition during output loading.
For all modes of operations, the state will stay constant while LE is kept low.

Serial Control Interface
Asynchronous Mode
The HMC1018LP4E can be switched to an asynchronous mode to change the attenuation state rapidly to one of four
predefined states. The logic state of ASM1-ASM2 determines one of the four attenuation states in the asynchronous
mode per truth table. The asynchronous mode works either directly or latched. To activate the direct-asynchronousmode, S/A needs to be at logic low and LE needs to be at logic high. In the direct-asynchronous-mode, any change in
the logic state of ASM1-ASM2 directly affects the attenuation state. In the latched-asynchronous-mode, the attenuation
state changes per the asynchronous mode truth table when S/A is at logic low and LE is pulsed per the timing diagram.
The attenuation stays constant (latched) as long as LE stays low. In the asynchronous mode, the inputs SERIN and
CLK do not affect the attenuation state.

Power-Up States
If LE is set to logic LOW at power-up, the logic state
of PUP determines the power-up state of the part per
PUP truth table. If the LE is set to logic HIGH at powerup, the logic state of ASM1-ASM2 determines the
power-up state of the part per truth table for the asynchronous mode. The attenuator latches in the desired
power-up state approximately 200 ms after power-up.

The circuit board used in the application should use
RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should
have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground
leads should be connected directly to the ground
plane similar to that shown. A sufficient number of
via holes should be used to connect the top and
bottom ground planes. The evaluation circuit board
shown is available from Hittite upon request.
