P1AT-29MF-40G2W-10

Overview

The P1AT-29MF-40G2W-10 is a fixed-value RF attenuator manufactured by P1dB Inc. It provides an attenuation of 10 dB with a nominal impedance of 50 Ohms. The device operates across a frequency range from DC to 40 GHz. It features a 2.92mm male connector on one end and a 2.92mm female connector on the other, forming an in-line module configuration. The unit supports a power handling capacity of 2 Watts.

Feature Summary

• Fixed 10 dB attenuation value for precise signal reduction
• Operates up to 40 GHz for high-frequency applications
• 2.92mm male-to-female in-line module construction

Applications

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

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender combination (male-to-female) against system requirements. Confirm that the 2.92mm interface matches existing infrastructure. Ensure the 2W power rating meets operational limits. Check datasheet specifications for insertion loss and VSWR values relevant to the application.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 10 dB reduction is required at frequencies up to 40 GHz. The 2.92mm interface is suitable for high-performance microwave designs. Consider the 50 Ohm impedance match for standard RF systems. Evaluate the 2W power handling capability against peak signal levels.

Part Context

This part belongs to the P1AT series of RF attenuators from P1dB Inc. These components are designed for in-line integration into RF paths. The series offers various attenuation values and frequency ranges. The 2.92mm connector type indicates suitability for high-frequency performance.

Replacement Considerations

P1AT-29MF-40G2W-20 offers 20 dB attenuation with identical connectors and frequency range. P1AT-SAMF-18G2W-40 uses SMA connectors instead of 2.92mm. Verify connector compatibility before substitution.
