Both the input functions in a CATV Set-Top Box or Cable Modem. and the output are single-ended and matched to 75 It incorporates a digitally controlled precision step Ohms. The precision attenuator provides up to 30 dB attenuator that is preceded by an ultra low noise of attenuation in 2 dB increments. The ARA05050 is amplifier stage, and followed by an ultra-linear output offered in a 28-pin SSOP package that features a heat d r i v e r a m p l i fi e r.
