DATA SHEET SKY12345-362LF: 0.7-4.0 GHz Five-Bit Digital Attenuator with Serial-to-Parallel Driver (0.5 dB LSB) Applications Base stations Wireless and RF data Wireless local loop gain control circuits Features Broadband operation: 0.7 to 4.0 GHz Attenuation: 15.5 dB LSB attenuation: 0.5 dB Low insertion loss: 1 dB 900 MHz Positive voltage operation: 5 V Integrated silicon serial-to-parallel driver Small, QFN (24-pin, 4 x 4 mm) package (MSL1, 260 C per JEDEC J-STD-020) Figure 1. SKY12345-362LF Block Diagram Description The SKY12345-362LF is a GaAs FET five-bit digital attenuator I/C with a serial-to-parallel driver. The device is provided in a 4 x 4 mm, 24-pin Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) package. The SKY12345-362LF is particularly suited for applications in which high attenuation accuracy, low insertion loss, and low intermodulation products are required. A functional block diagram is shown in Figure 1. The pin configuration and package are shown in Figure 2. Signal pin assignments and functional pin descriptions are provided in Table 1.
