Overview
The Pasternack PE7162-20 is a fixed coaxial attenuator designed for RF applications up to 6 GHz. It features SMA male-to-SMA female connectors and provides a nominal attenuation of 20 dB. The unit is rated for a maximum power handling of 2 Watts at the specified attenuation value. The body is constructed from passivated stainless steel, ensuring durability in various environments.
Feature Summary
- Fixed attenuation design with PI pad topology
- Passivated stainless steel body construction
- SMA connector interface compatibility
Applications
- RF signal level reduction in test setups
- Impedance matching between circuit stages
- Protection of sensitive measurement equipment
Procurement Notes
Verify that the required attenuation value matches the specific application needs, as this model provides a fixed 20 dB reduction. Confirm that the operating frequency does not exceed 6 GHz and that the power levels remain within the 2 Watt limit. Ensure SMA connector gender compatibility with existing cabling infrastructure before integration.
Selection Notes
Select this component when a precise 20 dB signal reduction is required within the 6 GHz bandwidth. Consider the 2 Watt power rating for high-power transmission lines. The SMA interface suits standard laboratory and industrial RF systems. Evaluate environmental requirements for the passivated stainless steel housing if corrosion resistance is necessary.
Part Context
This part belongs to the Pasternack PE7162 series of fixed attenuators. The series offers various attenuation values while maintaining consistent SMA connectivity and frequency performance up to 6 GHz. These components are engineered for reliable signal management in microwave and radio frequency circuits.
Replacement Considerations
Direct substitutes include other Pasternack models with identical 20 dB attenuation and SMA interfaces, such as those in the PE7162 series. Cross-reference specifications for frequency range and power handling to ensure functional equivalence in the target circuit.
