PE7034-1

Overview

The Pasternack PE7034-1 is a rotary step attenuator featuring BNC female connectors. It provides an attenuation range of 0 to 1 dB with a resolution of 0.1 dB steps. The device operates from DC to 1 GHz and has a power rating of 1 Watt. It utilizes a 50 Ohm impedance system.

Feature Summary

• Rotary mechanical adjustment for precise attenuation control
• BNC female-to-female interface configuration
• Step-wise attenuation capability within the 0 to 1 dB range

Applications

• RF signal level adjustment in test and measurement setups
• Calibration of RF equipment requiring fine attenuation steps
• Signal path conditioning in low-power microwave circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the PE7034-1 to confirm current manufacturing status and compliance certifications. Ensure that the required connector type and impedance match the system design before ordering, as availability may vary by region.

Selection Notes

Select this component when fine resolution attenuation up to 1 dB is required at frequencies up to 1 GHz. The BNC interface suits standard laboratory and industrial RF applications. Consider the 1 Watt power handling limit for circuit integration.

Part Context

This part belongs to Pasternack's line of RF attenuators. It serves as a precision passive component for managing signal strength in coaxial systems. The rotary design allows for manual, repeatable adjustments across its specified frequency band.

Replacement Considerations

No direct substitute part numbers are publicly confirmed for this specific model. Check for generic BNC step attenuators with matching 0-1 dB range and 1 GHz frequency if exact replacement is needed.
