The TSK WB2 Series from Smiths Interconnect are Fixed Chip Attenuators that operate from DC to 50 GHz. They are available in attenuation levels from 0 to 10 dB (step size of 1 dB), 15 dB, 20 dB, and 30 dB with an attenuation accuracy of ±0.5 dB. These attenuators push the boundaries of size, weight, and power in a cost-effective, easy to implement surface-mount or wire-bondable solution.
These MIL-PRF-55342-qualified fixed attenuators offer excellent broadband RF performance while delivering increased power handling capability in a solder-mount or chip and wire form-factor. They utilize a robust, proven all thin-film process technology on an Alumina substrate, which provides a product suitable for harsh environments, such as those of space and defense markets. These attenuators are available in surface-mount packages that measure 1.02 x 1.02 x 0.25 mm and are ideal for amplifier circuits, transmit/receiver modules, up/down converters, instrumentation, satellite communications, radar, and 5G applications.
