IDT F2270 75(ohm) voltage variable attenuator 5mhz to 3000mhz Datasheet

75Ω Voltage Variable Attenuator
5MHz to 3000MHz
Description
Features
The F2270 is a 75Ω, low insertion loss voltage variable RF
attenuator (VVA) designed for a multitude of wireless and other
RF applications. This device covers a broad frequency range from
5MHz to 3000MHz. In addition to providing low insertion loss, the
F2270 provides excellent linearity performance over its entire
attenuation range.

The F2270 uses a positive supply voltage of 3.3V or 5V. Other
features include a VMODE pin allowing either a positive or negative
voltage control slope versus attenuation and multi-directional
operation where the RF input can be applied to either the RF1 or
RF2 pins. The attenuation control voltage range is from 0V to 5V
using either a 3.3V or 5V power supply.

Competitive Advantage
The F2270 provides extremely low insertion loss and superb IP3,
IP2, return loss performance, and slope linearity across the
control range. Compared to the previous state-of-the-art for silicon
VVAs, this device provides superior performance:

No internal connection. These pins can be left unconnected, have a voltage applied, or be connected to
ground (recommended).
RF1
RF Port 1. Matched to 75Ω. Since the RF pin internally has DC present, an external AC coupling capacitor
must be used. For low-frequency operation, increase the capacitor value to result in a low reactance at the
frequency of interest. An external series inductor of 2.4nH can also be used to improve the high frequency
match. This inductor, if used, should be placed as close to the device as possible.
10
RF2
RF Port 2. Matched to 75Ω. Since the RF pin internally has DC present, an external AC coupling capacitor
must be used. For low-frequency operation, increase the capacitor value to result in a low reactance at the
frequency of interest. An external series inductor of 2.8nH can also be used to improve the high frequency
match. This inductor, if used, should be placed as close to the device as possible.
14
VCTRL
Attenuator control voltage. Apply a voltage in the range specified in under “Recommended Operating
Conditions.” See the “Application Information” section for details about VCTRL. This pin is connected to an
internal 100kΩ series resistor that drives a biased voltage divider network.

VDD
16
VMODE
Attenuator slope control. Set to logic LOW to enable negative attenuation slope (maximum attenuation at
maximum VCTRL). Set to logic HIGH to enable positive attenuation slope (maximum attenuation at minimum
VCTRL). This pin is internally connected to a 170kΩ pull-down resistor to ground.
– EPAD
Exposed paddle. Internally connected to ground. Solder this exposed paddle to a printed circuit board (PCB)
pad that uses multiple ground vias to provide heat transfer out of the device into the PCB ground planes.
These multiple ground vias are also required to achieve the specified RF performance.

Application Information
The F2270 has been optimized for use in high performance RF applications from 5MHz to 1800MHz and has a full operating range of 5MHz
to 3000MHz.
Default Start-up
VMODE should be tied to either logic LOW (ground) or logic HIGH. If the VCTRL pin is left floating, the part will power up in the minimum
attenuation state when VMODE = LOW or in the maximum attenuation state when VMODE = HIGH.
VMODE
The VMODE pin is used to set the slope of the attenuation. The attenuation is varied by VCTRL as described in the next section. Setting VMODE to
a logic LOW (HIGH) will set the attenuation slope to negative (positive). A negative (positive) slope is defined as an increased (decreased)
attenuation with increasing VCTRL voltage. The Evaluation Kit provides has an on-board jumper to manually set VMODE. Install a jumper on
header J7 from VMODE to the pin marked Lo (Hi) to set the device for a negative (positive) slope (see Figure 58).
VCTRL
The voltage level on the VCTRL pin is used to control the attenuation of the F2270. At VCTRL =0V, the attenuation is a minimum (maximum) in
the negative (positive) slope mode. An increasing voltage on VCTRL produces an increasing (decreasing) attenuation respectively. The VCTRL
pin has an on-chip pull-up ESD diode so VDD should be applied before VCTRL is applied (see “Recommended Operating Conditions” for
details). If this sequencing is not possible, then resistor R5 in the application circuit (see Figure 60) should be set to 1kΩ to limit the current
into the VCTRL pin.
RF1 and RF2 Ports
The F2270 is a bi-directional device, allowing RF1 or RF2 to be used as the RF input. RF1 has some enhanced linearity performance, and
therefore should be used as the RF input, when possible, for best results. The F2270 has been designed to accept high RF input power levels;
therefore, VDD must be applied prior to the application of RF power to ensure reliability. DC blocking capacitors are required on the RF pins
and should be set to a value that results in a low reactance over the frequency range of interest. External series inductors can be added on
the RF1 and RF2 lines close to the device to improve the higher frequency match.
Power Supplies
The VDD supply pin should be bypassed with external capacitors to minimize noise and fast transients. Supply noise can degrade
performance, and fast transients can trigger ESD clamps and cause them to fail. Supply voltage changes or transients should have a slew
rate smaller than 1V/20µs. In addition, all control pins should remain at 0V (+/- 0.3V) while the supply voltage ramps or while it returns to zero.
Control Pin Interface
If control signal integrity is a concern and clean signals cannot be guaranteed due to overshoot, undershoot, or ringing, etc., then
implementing the circuit shown in Figure 57 at the input of each control pin is recommended. This applies to control pins 14 (VCTRL) and 16
(VMODE) as shown in Figure 57. Note the recommended resistor and capacitor values do not necessarily match the Evaluation Kit BOM for
the case of poor control signal integrity.
Extended Bandwidth Tuning (EBT)
There are cases where the return loss for the RF ports needs to be better than 18 dB across the frequency range. For this case, adding
series inductors just next to the package on the RF ports will accomplish this. The addition of these inductors, 2.4nH on RF1 and 2.8nH on
RF2, will degrade the insertion loss and return loss at frequencies above 2GHz.

Evaluation Kit Operation
Below is a basic setup procedure for configuring and testing the F2270 Evaluation Kit (EVKit).
Pre-Configure EVKit
This section is a guide to setting up the EVKit for testing. To configure the board for a negative attenuation slope (increasing attenuation with
increasing VCTRL voltage), install a header-shunt shorting pin 2 (center pin) and pin 3 (labeled Lo) on header J7 (see Figure 58). For a positive
slope (decreasing attenuation with increasing VCTRL voltage), this header-shunt should short pin 1 (labeled Hi) to pin 2 (center pin) on J7.
Power Supply Setup
Without making any connections to the EVKit, set up one fixed power supply (VCC) for 5V with a current limit of 10mA and one variable power
supply (VCTRL) set to 0V with a current limit of 5mA. Disable both power supplies.
RF Test Setup
Set the RF test setup to the desired frequency and power ranges within the specified operating limits noted in this datasheet.
Disable the output power of all the RF sources.
Connect EVKit to the test setup.
With the RF sources and power supplies disabled, connect the fixed 5V power supply to connector J3, the variable supply to J4, and the RF
connections to the desired RF ports.
Powering Up the EVKit
Enable the VCC power supply and observe a DC current of approximately 1.4mA.
Enable the VCTRL power supply.
Enable the RF sources. Verify that the DC current remains at about 1.4mA.
If the J7 connection is set for a negative (positive) attenuation slope, then increasing the variable supply will produce increased (decreased)
attenuation for the attenuator path (J1 to J2).
Powering Down the EVKit
Disable the RF power applied to the device.
Adjust the VCTRL power supply down to 0V and disable it.
Disable the VCC power supply.
Disconnect the EVKit from the RF test setup.
