The DTA-0R4G18G-60-CD-1 from Quantic PMI (Planar Monolithics) is a 10-bit Non-Reflective Programmable PIN Diode Attenuator that operates from 0.4 to 18 GHz. It provides an attenuation range of 60 dB (in 0.06 dB steps) with an attenuation accuracy of ±1.0 dB and has a switching speed of 1.0 µs/0.5 µs (ON/OFF time). This attenuator can handle an input power of 15 dBm and has an insertion loss of less than 4.8 dB. It can operate at an altitude of up to 10,000 m and has undergone MILE-5400T standard-based tests to ensure reliability. This programmable attenuator requires a DC supply from 12 to 15 V and consumes less than 150 mA of current. It is available in a module that measures 2.00 x 1.80 x 0.50 inches with SMA connectors.
