General Description
The HMC291 & HMC291E are general purpose
broadband 2-bit positive control GaAs IC digital
attenuators in 6 lead SOT26 surface mount plastic
packages. Covering 0.7 to 4 GHz, the insertion loss
is typically less than 0.7 to 1.3 dB. The attenuator
bit values are 4 (LSB) and 8 dB for a total attenuation
of 12 dB. Accuracy is excellent at ± 0.2 dB typical
with an IIP3 of up to +54 dBm. Two bit control voltage
inputs, toggled between 0 and +3 to +5 volts, are
used to select each attenuation state at less than 50
uA each. A single Vdd bias of +3 to +5 volts applied
through an external 5K Ohm resistor is required.

Application Circuit
DC blocking capacitors C1 & C2 are required on RF1 &
RF2. Choose C1 = C2 = 100 ~ 300 pF to allow lowest
customer specific frequency to pass with minimal loss.
R1 = 5K Ohm is required to supply voltage to the circuit
through either PIN 3 or PIN 1.
Evaluation Circuit Board
* R2 = R3 = 100 Ohm.
These resistors are optional
and may be used to enhance
decoupling of the RF path
from the control inputs.

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
as shown is available from Hittite Microwave Corporation upon request.
