250-200RM

Overview

The 250-200RM is a fixed RF attenuator manufactured by TTM Technologies. It operates within a frequency range of 0 Hz to 2 GHz and features a nominal impedance of 200 Ohms. The component is designed for high-power applications, supporting a power handling capacity of 250 Watts. It utilizes an SMD/SMT termination type for board mounting. The device is RoHS compliant and falls under the category of RF resistors or attenuators.

Feature Summary

• Provides fixed attenuation in the 200 Ohm impedance environment
• Supports continuous wave power handling up to 250 Watts
• Operates across a wide frequency spectrum from DC to 2 GHz

Applications

• High-power RF signal conditioning
• Impedance matching networks requiring 200 Ohm resistance
• RF test and measurement equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific attenuation value (in dB) with the manufacturer, as it is not explicitly stated in the provided summary data. Confirm the exact package dimensions and thermal management requirements for 250W operation. Ensure the supplier provides the official datasheet for detailed electrical performance curves and reliability data before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 200 Ohm resistive element is required for high-power RF applications up to 2 GHz. It is suitable for designs needing robust power handling capabilities. Compare against other TTM models like the 250-50RM-S if a 50 Ohm system impedance is needed instead. Ensure the PCB layout supports the thermal dissipation requirements of a 250 Watt rated device.

Part Context

This part belongs to TTM Technologies' portfolio of RF microwave components and passive devices. TTM Technologies is a global manufacturer specializing in mission systems, RF components, and advanced interconnect products including PCBs.
