E-TA2012 T 1DB N1

Attenuators Overview

The E-TA2012 T 1DB N1 is a surface-mount RF attenuator manufactured by Nidec Components. It provides an attenuation value of 1 dB within a frequency range of 0 Hz to 3 GHz. The component features a 50 Ohm impedance and operates with a power rating of 63 mW. It utilizes an 0805 (2012 Metric) package for compact integration into electronic circuits.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Provides precise signal attenuation for RF applications
• Supports high-frequency operation up to 3 GHz
• Designed for surface-mount assembly processes

Attenuators Applications

• RF signal conditioning in communication systems
• Impedance matching networks
• Signal level adjustment in test equipment

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'N1' against official datasheets to confirm exact termination and marking specifications. Ensure compatibility with standard reflow soldering profiles for 0805 packages. Confirm that the 63 mW power rating meets system thermal requirements during operation.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this component when a low attenuation value near 1 dB is required for 50 Ohm systems. Consider the 0805 footprint constraints and the 3 GHz frequency limit. Evaluate thermal management needs relative to the 63 mW dissipation capability in the target application environment.

Attenuators Part Context

This part belongs to the E-TA series of thin-film or chip-style RF attenuators from Nidec Components. These components are designed to replace discrete resistor networks, offering consistent performance across wide bandwidths while maintaining a small physical profile suitable for modern PCB layouts.
