This attenuator offers excellent performance from low frequency through 1 GHz, making it ideal for IF and RF level control applications. It contains an onboard CMOS driver circuit which accepts CMOS logic levels at the 6 control inputs and produces a negative supply voltage to control the GaAs attenuator. The SKY12332-310LF has excellent linearity for compatibility with non-constant envelope signals, such as W-CDMA and OFDM. The 6 attenuation bits are binary weighted, with an LSB of 0.5 dB and a total nominal attenuation range of 31.5 dB. It also has excellent attenuation accuracy and is monotonic. The low-noise CMOS driver enables a very low RF noise floor, typically -100 dBm. Typical applications for this attenuator include level control in cellular base stations, wireless data transceivers, broadband systems, etc. The required supply voltage for SKY12332-310LF is 5V. This part can operate over the temperature range of -40 °C to 85 °C. An evaluation board is available upon request.

B DATA SHEET • SKY12332-310LF Circuit Description The SKY12332-301LF is comprised of a Si CMOS die and a GaAs digital attenuator die, packaged in a 5 x 5 mm, 32-pin QFN surface mount package. The CMOS die performs the following functions: it contains a charge pump circuit that generates a negative voltage, VSS, from the positive supply voltage, VDD; it decodes the 6-bit control word applied to ports V1 through V6; and, it drives the corresponding switching FETs on the GaAs attenuator die. This circuit was optimized to produce the lowest possible noise in the RF signal path. The GaAs attenuator die is comprised of 6 resistive, fixed attenuator sections with nominal input and output impedance of 50 Ω. The attenuation of these sections is binary weighted, ranging from 0.5 dB nominal up to 16 dB nominal. These attenuator sections are either switched into or out of the main signal path, between ports J1 and J2, according to the 6-bit control word applied to ports V1 through V6. This die is also utilized in AA113-310. The switching is performed by depletion mode MESFETs on the attenuator die. The charge pump circuit on the CMOS die generates the negative voltage VSS, nominally -3.75 V, required to enable reverse bias of the gate-source of the MESFETs that must be switched to high drain-source impedance to properly select or bypass the fixed resistive attenuator sections.
