Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific non-standard SMD footprint dimensions against your PCB layout before ordering, as standard footprints may not apply. Confirm the 20W power rating requirements align with your thermal management design. Ensure the 0-2.3 GHz frequency range meets your application needs. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by your manufacturing standards.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust 20W RF attenuator is needed for frequencies up to 2.3 GHz. The non-standard SMD form factor requires careful mechanical consideration during board design. Compare against other TTM models like C12N50Z4 or D50AA20Z4 if different power levels or frequency ranges are required.
