Description
The AV111-12 is a current controlled variable attenuator from Alpha’s series of HIP3™ components. It is designed to meet the wide dynamic range required in spread spectrum wireless base station applications. A monolithic quadrature hybrid is teamed with a silicon PIN diode pair in a plastic surface mount package reducing size and assuring consistency from part to part.
