PE7395-20

Attenuators Overview

The Pasternack PE7395-20 is a fixed 20 dB attenuator featuring an in-line, resistive PI pad design. It operates with a 50-ohm coaxial impedance and utilizes 2.92mm connectors, specifically male on one side and female on the other. The component is rated for frequencies up to 40 GHz.

Attenuators Feature Summary

• In-line resistive PI attenuator pad design
• 50-ohm coaxial impedance operation
• 2.92mm connector interface

Attenuators Applications

• RF signal attenuation in high-frequency circuits
• Test and measurement equipment
• Telecommunications systems

Attenuators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender configuration (male-to-female) against system requirements. Confirm that the 40 GHz frequency rating aligns with operational needs. Ensure the 50-ohm impedance matches the surrounding circuitry to prevent signal reflection issues during integration.

Attenuators Selection Notes

Select this model when a precise 20 dB reduction is required at frequencies extending to 40 GHz. The 2.92mm interface ensures compatibility with high-performance RF systems. Consider the physical size and mounting constraints associated with the connectorized package type.

Attenuators Part Context

This component belongs to the Pasternack fixed attenuator series, designed for reliable signal level control. It complements other models like the PE7395-2, which offers different attenuation values within the same connector family, allowing for flexible system design across various frequency bands.

Attenuators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other 20 dB fixed attenuators from Pasternack with compatible 2.92mm interfaces. Verify that alternative parts maintain the 40 GHz upper frequency limit and 50-ohm impedance specification to ensure seamless integration without performance degradation.
