AT-601(40)

Attenuators Overview

The AT-601(40) is a 1 dB RF attenuator manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd. It operates within a frequency range of DC to 6 GHz and maintains a 50 Ohm impedance. The device features a TNC connector interface with male and female genders. Constructed with stainless steel housing and gold-plated contacts, it ensures reliable signal attenuation in high-frequency circuits.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Provides precise 1 dB signal level reduction for high-frequency applications
• Maintains controlled 50 Ohm impedance across the operational bandwidth
• Utilizes robust stainless steel construction with gold-plated contacts

Attenuators Applications

• High-frequency circuit signal conditioning
• RF system calibration and testing
• Signal level adjustment in communication equipment

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through official Hirose channels or authorized distributors. Confirm RoHS compliance status via current datasheets. Check for obsolete status indicators as availability may be limited. Ensure connector gender and impedance specifications match system requirements before procurement.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring fixed 1 dB attenuation at frequencies up to 6 GHz. Ensure compatibility with TNC interfaces and 50 Ohm systems. Consider environmental ratings if operating outside standard temperature ranges. Verify physical dimensions against board space constraints.

Attenuators Part Context

This part belongs to Hirose's RF attenuator series designed for precision signal management. It complements other RF interconnect solutions by providing stable attenuation characteristics. The product line focuses on maintaining signal integrity in complex electronic assemblies requiring precise power control.

Attenuators Replacement Considerations

The AT-601(40) is listed as obsolete. FMAT7469-1 from Fairview Microwave is identified as a parametric equivalent substitute. Verify electrical parameters and mechanical fit before substitution.
