Chip Attenuators
Spectrum Control's Powerfilm brand chip attenuators come in two varieties:
Temperature-Stable (standard)
Temperature-Variable
Standard, temperature-stable RF attenuators reduce the RF power uniformly at all temperatures. Temperature-variable chips are designed to reduce their attenuation at elevated temperatures to provide the optimal response needed in signal-leveling applications including amplifier circuits, receivers, up/down converters, and phase-matched arrays.
SMT attenuators are used in amplifier circuits, receivers, up/down converters, phase-matched arrays, and switching applications. Depending on desired specifications, chip RF attenuators are fabricated on BeO, Aluminum Nitride, or Alumina ceramics. Non-standard dB values and additional tinning options are available upon request.
