Description
M/A-COM's MAAD-007081-000100 is a GaAs FET
5-bit digital attenuator with integral TTL driver. Step
size is 0.5 dB providing a 15.5 dB total attenuation
range. This device is in an PQFN plastic surface
mount package. MAAD-007081-000100 is ideally
suited for use where accuracy, fast speed, very low
power consumption and low costs are required.
