HMC306MS10 / 306MS10E v06.0206 0.5 dB LSB GaAs MMIC 5-BIT DIGITAL ATTENUATOR, 0.7 - 3.8 GHz Features The HMC306MS10 / HMC306MS10E is ideal for: RoHS-Compliant Product * Cellular; UMTS/3G Infrastructure 0.5 dB LSB Steps to 15.5 dB * ISM, MMDS, WLAN, WiMAX Single Positive Control Per Bit * Microwave Radio & VSAT 0.2 dB Typical Bit Error * Test Equipment and Sensors Miniature 15 mm2 Package: MSOP10 TE Typical Applications Included in the HMC-DK004 Designer's Kit Functional Diagram General Description LE The HMC306MS10 & HMC306MS10E are general purpose broadband 5-bit positive control GaAs IC digital attenuators in 10 lead MSOP surface mount plastic packages. Covering 0.7 to 3.8 GHz, the insertion loss is typically less than 1.5 to 2.3 dB. These attenuators' bit values are 0.5 (LSB), 1, 2, 4 and 8 dB for a total attenuation of 15.5 dB. Attenuation accuracy is excellent at 0.2 dB typical with an IIP3 of up to +52 dBm. Five bit control voltage inputs, toggled between 0 and +3 to +5V, are used to select each attenuation state. A single Vdd bias of +3 to +5V applied through an external 5K Ohm resistor is required.
