G40 / SMG40 Voltage-Controlled Attenuator Module 500 to 4000 MHz Rev. V3 Features Product Image • • • • WIDE BAND PERFORMANCE EXCELLENT INSERTION LOSS: < 3.0 dB (TYP.) HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE: 30 dB TO 3000 MHz (TYP.) FAST SWITCHING: < 0.5 µsec, 10 TO 90% (TYP.) < 2 µsec, 0 TO 100% (TYP.) Description The G40 attenuator is a discrete hybrid design, which uses thin film manufacturing processes for accurate performance and high reliability. This design uses three pin diodes to provide a non linear attenuation response across a broadband frequency range. Both TO-8 and Surface Mount packages are hermetically sealed, and MIL-STD-883 environmental screening is available. Ordering Information Part Number Package G40 TO-8 SMG40 Surface Mount CG40 ** SMA Connectorized ** The connectorized version is not RoHs compliant.
