Variable Attenuator ICs

  atten  
Function:
 
Decreases the level of the incident signal by a selectable amount.
(Note: fixed value attenuators are passive devices commonly implemented using resistors, and are not Agilent Technologies RF and microwave products.)
 
  Products
    HMMC-1002 general purpose attenuator
    HMMC-1015 lower distortion attenuator
  Alternatives  
  1. PIN diodes offer an alternative to attenuator RFICs.
  2. Variable Gain Amplifiers are an altenate way to get variable gain functionality.
