General Description

The ATN10-0070CSP1 is a surface mount GaAs MMIC attenuator in a chip scale package (CSP). This attenuator is an ideal solution for attenuating a signal and can be used in a wide range of applications. The ATN10-0070CSP1 features a typical 10.2 dB attenuation with 0.2 dB attenuation flatness and 23 dB return loss across the DC-70 GHz bandwidth. The CSP allows for extreme miniaturization of SMT footprint while providing die-level performance. GaAs MMIC technology provides consistent unit-to-unit performance in a small, low-cost form factor. A 50-ohm match is maintained over the entire operating frequency range.
