The PPA100-9 from Inmet by Spectrum Control is a Power-Film Flange Attenuator that operates from DC to 500 MHz. It provides 9 dB of attenuation with an accuracy of ±0.5. This 50-Ohm attenuator can handle an input power of up to 100 W and has a VSWR of less than 1.50:1. It has a Beryllium Oxide substrate, an alumina ceramic cover, and gold-platted beryllium copper tabs.
The PPA100-9 is available in a flange package that measures 1.25 x 0.5 x 0.21 inches and is ideal for use in high-power amplifiers and as terminating attenuators in isolators where lower-level signal sampling is required.
