P1AT-24MF-50G2W-5

Attenuators Overview

The P1AT-24MF-50G2W-5 is a fixed RF attenuator manufactured by P1dB Inc. It provides a nominal attenuation of 5 dB with an impedance of 50 Ohms. The device operates across a frequency range from DC to 50 GHz. It supports a maximum power handling capacity of 2 Watts. The component features a 2.4mm male connector on one end and a 2.4mm female connector on the other. The maximum Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) is specified as 1.30.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• Fixed 5 dB attenuation value for precise signal reduction
• Operates up to 50 GHz frequency range
• 2.4mm coaxial interface design

Attenuators Applications

• RF test and measurement equipment
• Microwave communication systems
• Signal conditioning in high-frequency circuits

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender configuration matches the system requirements, as the model indicates male-to-female interfaces. Confirm that the 2 Watt power rating aligns with the operational power levels of the application. Ensure the 50 Ohm impedance is compatible with the surrounding circuitry to maintain signal integrity. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the manufacturing process.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 5 dB loss is required within a 50 Ohm system operating at frequencies up to 50 GHz. The 2.4mm connector type dictates the physical interface constraints. Consider the 2 Watt power limit when designing for high-power applications. Compare against other attenuation values in the series if different signal levels are needed.

Attenuators Part Context

This part belongs to the P1AT series of RF attenuators from P1dB Inc. The series offers various fixed attenuation values ranging from 1 dB to 20 dB. All models in this line share similar electrical characteristics, including the 50 Ohm impedance and 50 GHz upper frequency limit. The suffix '5' denotes the specific 5 dB attenuation level.

Attenuators Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include P1AT-24MF-50G2W-1, P1AT-24MF-50G2W-6, and P1AT-24MF-50G2W-20 from the same manufacturer. These parts share identical connector types and frequency ranges but offer different attenuation values. Verify that the alternative attenuation level meets the system design requirements before substitution.
