ADRF5716BCCZN-R7

Attenuators Overview

The ADRF5716BCCZN-R7 is a silicon digital step attenuator manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It provides a total attenuation control range of 48 dB with discrete steps of 16 dB, utilizing a 2-bit architecture. The device operates within a frequency range of 0.1 GHz to 30 GHz and maintains a system impedance of 50 ohms. Key electrical specifications include an insertion loss of 2.9 dB and a maximum power handling capability of 30 dBm. The component is housed in a 20-pin LGA package and supports glitch-free operation for reliable signal integrity.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Supports glitch-free operation to ensure signal integrity during state transitions
• Provides precise digital attenuation control using a 2-bit architecture
• Designed for high-frequency applications up to 30 GHz

Attenuators Applications

• RF signal path management in communication systems
• Test and measurement equipment requiring variable attenuation
• Phased array antenna beamforming networks

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix R7 indicates reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm availability status as supply may be limited or restricted. Ensure compatibility with 50-ohm system impedance requirements. Check RoHS compliance documentation for regulatory adherence. Validate that the LGA-20 footprint matches the target PCB design constraints.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring wideband attenuation up to 30 GHz. Consider the 16 dB step size for coarse adjustment needs rather than fine-grained control. Evaluate the 2.9 dB insertion loss impact on overall system noise figure. Ensure the 30 dBm power rating aligns with maximum signal levels in the circuit path.
