Description
The AV101-12 is a current controlled, variable attenuator
from Skyworks 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.
