The MAAVSS0007 is ideally suited for use where linear attenuation, fine tuning and very low power 3. V = +5 VDC 50 A maximum. cc consumption are required. 4. V = 0 VDC to +5 VDC 50 A maximum. c 5. External DC blocking capacitors are requirements on all RF ports. Typical applications include radio, cellular, GPS 6. 39 pF used for data measurements. equipment and automatic gain/level control circuits. The MAAVSS0007 is fabricated with a monolithic Pin Configuration GaAs MMIC using a mature 1-micron process. The process features full chip passivation for increased Pin No. Function Pin No. Function performance and reliability. 1 Ground 5 V C 2 Ground 6 Ground 3 RF Port 7 RF Port 1,2 4 V 8 Ground CC Ordering Information Part Number Package 7,8 Absolute Maximum Ratings MAAVSS0007 Bulk Packaging Parameter Absolute Maximum MAAVSS0007TR 1000 piece reel Input Power +21 dBm MAAVSS0007SMB Sample Board Supply Voltage V -1 V < V < +8 V CC CC 1.
