CHT3029-QEG a new attenuator

The CHT3029-QEG is a wide band, DC-31GHz, 4 bit attenuator which exhibits a high dynamic range of 15dB (1dB step) across the whole frequency band combined with a low amplitude error (RMS attenuation error <0.5dB).

 

 

The CHT3029-QEG has a low insertion loss of 4dB @ 20GHz and 8dB @ 31GHz with typically input and output return losses better than 12dB. A CMOS and TTL compatible interface is available on the chip.
