ATT-0205-06-SMA-02

Attenuators Overview

The ATT-0205-06-SMA-02 is an RF attenuator module manufactured by Cinch Connectivity Solutions Midwest Microwave. It provides a fixed attenuation of 6 dB with a frequency range of 0 Hz to 12.4 GHz. The component supports a maximum power handling capacity of 2W and utilizes SMA connectors in an in-line configuration. This connectorized attenuator is designed for high-frequency signal management within electronic systems requiring precise signal level reduction.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Provides fixed 6 dB signal attenuation
• Operates across DC to 12.4 GHz frequency range
• Handles up to 2W of RF power
• Features SMA connector interface

Attenuators Applications

• RF signal path conditioning
• Test and measurement equipment
• Communication system signal leveling
• Microwave circuit protection

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including suffixes against official manufacturer documentation to ensure correct attenuation value and connector type. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with authorized distributors, as availability may vary. Cross-reference datasheet specifications for environmental operating conditions prior to integration.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed 6 dB attenuation is required within the 12.4 GHz bandwidth. Ensure the application power levels do not exceed the 2W rating. Compare against other series like ATT-0263 if higher frequency coverage up to 18 GHz is needed. Verify SMA connector compatibility with existing system interfaces.

Attenuators Part Context

This component belongs to the ATT-0205 series of connectorized attenuators from Midwest Microwave. The series offers various fixed attenuation values within the same form factor. It is distinct from the ATT-0263 series which supports higher frequencies up to 18 GHz. The product line focuses on reliable RF performance in standard SMA configurations.

Attenuators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other ATT-0205 variants with different attenuation values such as ATT-0205-09-SMA-02 or ATT-0205-15-SMA-02 if adjustment is acceptable. For broader frequency needs, consider the ATT-0263 series. Always verify pinout and mechanical dimensions before substitution.
