MAAVSS0001TR-3000

Overview

The MAAVSS0001TR-3000 is a GaAs MMIC voltage variable absorptive attenuator manufactured by MACOM Technology Solutions. It operates within a frequency range of 1.8 GHz to 2.5 GHz and provides an attenuation value of 42 dB. The device features a 50 Ohm impedance and is housed in a SC-74A, SOT-753 surface mount package. Designed for reliability, it supports operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes GaAs MMIC technology for high-performance signal control
• Provides precise voltage-controlled absorption for RF applications
• Designed for lead-free SOT-753 surface mount integration

Applications

• RF signal path management in wireless communication systems
• Attenuation control in CDMA and GSM infrastructure
• Test and measurement equipment requiring variable loss

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix TR-3000 to confirm tape-and-reel packaging configuration. Ensure compatibility with SC-74A (SOT-753) footprint requirements during PCB layout. Confirm RoHS3 compliance status if required by project specifications. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against official MACOM documentation to avoid substitution errors.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, voltage-variable attenuator is needed for frequencies up to 2.5 GHz. The 42 dB maximum attenuation range suits applications requiring significant signal reduction. The SOT-753 package offers a small form factor suitable for space-constrained designs. Consider the 50 Ohm system impedance match for standard RF environments.

Part Context

This part belongs to MACOM's portfolio of GaAs MMIC attenuators. It serves as the active component for the MAAVSS0001SMB evaluation board. The device represents a solution for integrating variable loss capabilities into mobile and base station architectures without compromising linearity or size constraints typical of discrete solutions.
