MMS005AA

Overview

The MMS005AA is a fixed RF attenuator manufactured by Microsemi Corporation. It provides a precise attenuation value of 17dB with a nominal impedance of 50 Ohms. The component operates across a frequency range from 0 Hz to 40 GHz. It is supplied in a die package format, suitable for integration into high-frequency circuit designs requiring stable signal reduction.

Feature Summary

• Provides fixed 17dB signal attenuation
• Operates up to 40 GHz frequency range
• Maintains 50 Ohm system impedance

Applications

• RF signal path conditioning
• High-frequency test and measurement equipment
• Microwave communication systems

Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status as the product may be discontinued or restricted. Confirm that the die package format aligns with your assembly capabilities. Ensure compliance with environmental regulations such as RoHS non-compliance if applicable. Check for valid datasheets before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 17dB attenuation is required at frequencies up to 40 GHz. Consider the die package type for board-level integration. Verify impedance matching requirements for 50 Ohm systems. Evaluate thermal and mechanical constraints associated with bare die mounting.

Part Context
