Description
The AD230-24 is an IC FET Digital Attenuator consisting
of three monolithic attenuators with LSB of 4 dB and a total
attenuation of 28 dB with all attenuators connected.
Attenuators are switched with -5 and 0 V.
The AD230-24 is particularly suited where high
attenuation accuracy, low insertion loss and low
intermodulation products are required. Typical applications
include cellular radio, wireless data, wireless local loop and
other gain level control circuits.

1. All measurements made in a 50
system, unless otherwise specified.
2. DC = 300 kHz.
3. Insertion loss changes by 0.003 dB/°C.
4. Attenuation referenced to insertion loss.
5. Video feedthru measured with 1 ns risetime pulse and 500 MHz bandwidth.
*Due to conflict with another company's product numbering system, Alpha's attenuator products starting with the letters "AD" are being changed to "AA".
