EMC Technology introduces a new high frequency, wire bondable chip attenuator, KFA. Designed with the KTVA footprint in mind this component offers a flat attenuation from 16-36 GHz. The KFA chip attenuator can handle 250mW and is available in 1 -10 dB with an operating temperature from -55 to +150 ºC. The KFA is also available for high-reliability applications under the HRKFA part number with Group A, B and C life testing according to Mil-PRF-55342. This new attenuator is available with gold wire bondable terminals and a platinum silver, solder attachable ground plane in an ultra miniature chip size 0.065 x 0.120 inches (1.65mm x 3.05mm). The KFA ultra broadband attenuator is available for immediate delivery.
“Once again, EMC Technology has introduced a resistive solution to mitigate flatness issues associated with gain variations of broadband MMICs in high frequency amplifier designs up to Ka band”, David Bernstein, President.
