766A-30

Attenuators Overview

The L3 Narda-MITEQ 766A-30 is a fixed coaxial attenuator designed for high-power RF applications. It provides a nominal attenuation value of 30dB with a tolerance of ±0.75dB across a frequency range of DC to 4GHz, extending to 5GHz in some specifications. The component features an N-Type In-Line Module package configuration, supporting male and female connectors. It handles a continuous power rating of 20W, with peak input power capabilities reaching up to 1000W. The device exhibits a typical VSWR of 1.10 and insertion loss characteristics consistent with its attenuation class.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Provides precise 30dB signal reduction for RF circuit calibration
• Supports high peak power handling up to 1000W
• Features robust N-Type in-line modular construction

Attenuators Applications

• RF test and measurement equipment calibration
• Signal level adjustment in high-power transmission lines
• Receiver protection in radar systems

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for exact frequency limits, as sources cite both 4GHz and 5GHz maximums. Confirm connector gender availability (N-Type M/F) matches system requirements. Ensure thermal management aligns with the 20W continuous power rating during operation.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this model when high power dissipation is required alongside fixed attenuation. Compare against lower power variants if peak loads exceed 1000W. Verify that the N-Type interface compatibility exists within the target assembly constraints.

Attenuators Part Context

This component belongs to the 766A series of fixed attenuators from L3 Narda-MITEQ. The series offers various attenuation values and power ratings. The 766A-30 specifically targets the 30dB requirement within the high-power segment of the product line.

Attenuators Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 30dB N-Type fixed attenuators rated for 20W+ power. Verify dimensional compatibility and electrical tolerances match the original design specifications.
