|
||
The HMC472ALP4E are broadband 6-bit GaAs IC
|
||
digital attenuators in low cost leadless surface mount
|
||
packages. This single positive control line per bit
|
||
digital attenuator incorporates off chip AC ground
|
||
capacitors for near DC operation, making it suit
|
||
able for a wide variety of RF and IF applications.
|
||
Covering DC to 3.8 GHz, the insertion loss is less
|
||
than 2.0 dB typical. The attenuator bit values are 0.5
|
||
(LSB), 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 dB for a total attenuation of
|
||
31.5 dB. Attenuation accuracy is excellent at ± 0.25 dB
|
||
typical step error with an IIP3 of +54 dBm. Six TTL/
|
||
CMOS control inputs are used to select each attenua
|
||
tion state. A single Vdd bias of +5V is required.

|------------|----------|-------------|
|
||
| 1, 3, 5, 12, 14, 16, 17, 18 | N/C | These pins should be connected to PCB RF ground to maximize performance. |
|
||
| 2 | Vdd | Supply Voltage. |
|
||
| 4, 15 | RF1, RF2 | This pin is DC coupled and matched to 50 Ohm. Blocking capacitors are required. Select value based on lowest frequency of operation. |
|
||
| 6 - 11, 13 | ACG1 - ACG7 | External capacitors to ground are recommended for low and high frequency operation. Select value for lowest frequency of operation. Place capacitor as close to pins as possible. For operation from 700 to 2700 MHz, these pins may be left unconnected. |
|
||
| 19 - 24 | V1 - V6 | See truth table and control voltage table. |
|
||
| GND | Exposed Paddle | Package bottom has an exposed metal paddle that must also be connected to RF/DC Ground. |

## Page 8 - Evaluation PCB
|
||
|
||
The circuit board used in the application should use RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines should have 50 Ohm impedance while the package ground leads and exposed paddle should be connected directly to the ground plane similar to that shown. A sufficient number of via holes should be used to connect the top and bottom ground planes. The evaluation circuit board shown is available from Analog Devices, upon request.
