Anyone who has to reduce the amplitudes of RF signals in a controlled manner needs an attenuator. Linearly adjustable attenuation networks using special PIN diodes are available for this, but they ...

In the RF world, attenuators are a useful test and measurement tool. Variable units that can apply different levels of attenuation in discrete steps are even better. [DuWayne] made a 63 dB step ...

[Kerry Wong] comes across the coolest hardware, and always manages to do something interesting with it. His widget du jour is an old demo board for a digital RF attenuator chip, which can pad a signal ...

Fairview Microwave has expanded its line of 40 GHz fixed RF attenuators with 2.92 mm connectors offering attenuation levels of 0 to 10, 12, 15, 20 and 30 dB. The 40 GHz attenuator pads are designed to ...

Integrated Device Technology, Inc. announced the industry’s first Glitch-Free radio frequency (RF) digital step attenuator (DSA) with integrated blocking capacitors. The new DSA is a true drop-in ...

Fairview Microwave has announced the release of its RF fixed attenuators with 2.4mm connectors, providing high power ratings of up to 5W (CW) and a frequency range of up to 50 GHz. The RF fixed ...

Smiths has launched its AT Series of RF chip attenuators from DC to 20 GHz. The AT Series is available in various styles from DC-6 GHz for lower frequency requirements up to DC-20 GHz for the ...
