AT-24-01-10

Attenuators Overview

The Maury Microwave AT-24-01-10 is a fixed coaxial attenuator designed for RF, microwave, and millimeter-wave applications. It provides a nominal attenuation of 10 dB with a frequency range extending from DC to 50 GHz. The component features 2.4mm connectors (male-to-female) and operates at a characteristic impedance of 50 Ohms. It handles up to 1 Watt of power. The unit exhibits a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) ranging from 1.3 to 1.75:1 across its operational bandwidth.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Maintains signal integrity by reducing RF power without distorting waveform quality
• Ensures high precision through MIL-spec pin depth and concentricity standards
• Facilitates rapid identification via color-coded coding system

Attenuators Applications

• Precision calibration of measurement systems
• Semiconductor device characterization and testing
• Aerospace and defense microwave system validation

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender configuration matches the design requirement, as the model denotes male-to-female interfaces. Confirm that the 1W power rating aligns with the maximum expected signal levels in the target circuit. Ensure the 2.4mm interface compatibility is validated against existing test fixtures. Cross-reference the VSWR specifications with system sensitivity requirements to guarantee acceptable signal reflection limits during operation.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 10 dB reduction is required within the 50 GHz bandwidth. The 2.4mm interface suits high-frequency setups requiring precise mechanical tolerances. Consider the 1W power handling limit relative to source output capabilities. This attenuator is appropriate for environments demanding stable performance and minimal signal distortion across wide frequency spans.
