General Description
The HMC210MS8 is a miniature absorptive
voltage variable attenuator in an 8-lead MSOP package. The device operates with a positive supply
voltage (+2.5V), and a positive control
voltage. A unique feature is the high third order intercept point for all attenuation states. Operation up to 2.3 GHz is possible with a reduced attenuation range of 31 dB.
