P1AT-SAMF-6G2W-6

Overview

The P1AT-SAMF-6G2W-6 is a coaxial RF attenuator manufactured by P1dB Inc. It provides a fixed attenuation value of 6 dB with an impedance of 50 Ohms. The device operates across a frequency range from 0 Hz to 6 GHz and supports a maximum power handling capacity of 2 Watts. It utilizes SMA connectors for signal transmission.

Feature Summary

• Fixed 6 dB attenuation level
• SMA male to female interface
• DC to 6 GHz operational bandwidth

Applications

• RF signal path conditioning
• Microwave circuit testing
• Signal level adjustment in communication systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix against official manufacturer documentation to confirm the exact attenuation value and connector configuration. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 standards as indicated in distributor listings. Cross-reference technical specifications directly with the P1dB datasheet to validate performance parameters before integration into design projects.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 6 dB reduction is required within a 50 Ohm system operating up to 6 GHz. Consider the 2 Watt power rating for thermal management requirements. Verify that SMA connectors match the existing board layout or cable assembly interfaces to ensure mechanical compatibility without additional adapters.

Part Context

This model belongs to the P1AT-SAMF series of coaxial attenuators from P1dB Inc. The series offers various attenuation values while maintaining consistent electrical characteristics such as 50 Ohm impedance and SMA connectivity. These modules are designed for inline applications requiring precise signal attenuation in RF environments.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other models within the P1AT-SAMF series, such as P1AT-SAMF-6G2W-4 or P1AT-SAMF-6G2W-9, which share identical form factors and electrical interfaces but offer different attenuation levels. Ensure the replacement matches the required dB value for the specific application.
