MAT10090

Overview

The MAT10090 is a monolithic RF attenuator die from the MAT100 series, manufactured by MACOM Technology Solutions. It provides a fixed attenuation value of 9dB across a frequency range of 0 Hz to 20 GHz. The component is rated for a maximum power handling capacity of 2W and utilizes a mold package configuration. Designed for high-frequency applications, it operates within standard commercial temperature ranges and complies with RoHS3 specifications.

Feature Summary

• Provides precise 9dB fixed attenuation for signal level control
• Operates effectively across a wide bandwidth from DC to 20 GHz
• Handles up to 2W of RF power in a compact die format

Applications

• RF signal conditioning in microwave circuits
• Attenuation stages in test and measurement equipment
• Signal path management in wireless communication infrastructure

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the MAT10090 to confirm mechanical dimensions and thermal characteristics prior to integration. Ensure that the mounting process accounts for the die-level packaging requirements. Confirm compliance with current environmental regulations such as RoHS3 status. Cross-reference the manufacturer's part number with distributor listings to ensure authenticity and traceability of the component source.

Selection Notes

Select the MAT10090 when a fixed 9dB attenuation is required within a 20 GHz operational bandwidth. Consider this component for designs needing 2W power handling in a minimal footprint. Compare against other values in the MAT100 series if different attenuation levels are needed. Evaluate the die form factor against available board space and mounting capabilities for integrated circuit implementations.

Part Context

The MAT10090 belongs to the MAT100 series of monolithic RF attenuators produced by MACOM Technology Solutions. This series offers various fixed attenuation values optimized for high-frequency performance. These components are designed for integration into larger RF systems where precise signal control is critical. The series supports applications requiring reliable operation across broad frequency ranges with consistent attenuation characteristics.

Replacement Considerations

Other parts in the MAT100 series offer different attenuation values such as 5dB (MAT10050) or 11dB (MAT10110). Verify electrical compatibility before substitution.
