  • Exceptional power handling of 2W
  • Wide band width DC to 20 GHz
  • Miniature size 2.25 mm x 2.25 mm x 1.1 mm Ceramic package
  • Highly reliable and repeatable performance Product Overview RCAT attenuators are fixed value absorptive attenuators. The highly precision and repeatable monolithic attenuator chip is processed using the most advanced semiconductor processing techniques. The Cu filled through-die via’s and Cu metallization on the backside provides a very low thermal resistance path to dissipate the attenuated power. The attenuator chip is packaged in an LTCC hermetic package utilizing fully automated and highly reliable manufacturing processes. Feature Advantages Max power input 2W Thermally optimized design can operate reliably at much higher input power as com- pared to similar devices Band width DC to 20 GHz Supports a broad band of applications with predictable and repeatable performance, excellent choice to buffer cascaded reflective components. Ceramic Hermetic package Highly reliable hermetic package provides predictable and repeatable performance in military applications including ground, air, and ship requirements Very Small Size Miniature 2.25 mm x 2.25 mm and very low profile of 1.1 mm.

See our web site for RoHS Compliance methodologies and qualifications General Description RCAT-00+ (RoHS compliant) is a wideband fixed attenuator with excellent attenuation accuracy and flatness. It can handle up to 2W. The integrated circuits comprising of thin film resistors is bonded in an optimized multi layer integrated LTCC substrate, and then hermetically sealed under a controlled nitrogen atmosphere with gold-plated covers and eutectic AuSn solder. These amplifiers have been tested to MIL requirements for gross leak, fine leak, thermal shock, vibration, acceleration, mechanical shock, and HTOL.
