UNAT-12A+

Overview

The UNAT-12A+ is a fixed attenuator from Mini-Circuits designed for frequencies ranging from DC to 6000 MHz. It provides a nominal attenuation of 12 dB with a 50 Ohm impedance. The device features an N-Type connector interface and supports a power rating of 1.1 W. It is constructed as an in-line module suitable for interconnect applications.

Feature Summary

• Fixed attenuation value maintained across the operational frequency range
• N-Type connector interface for reliable signal transmission
• In-line module construction for direct circuit integration

Applications

• RF signal level control in test and measurement equipment
• Attenuation stages in communication systems
• Interconnect components in microwave circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version for the UNAT-12A+ to confirm mechanical dimensions and connector specifications. Ensure compatibility with system impedance requirements of 50 Ohms. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by project regulations. Confirm power handling capabilities match application demands before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 12 dB attenuation is required within the DC to 6 GHz bandwidth. The N-Type interface dictates connection compatibility with existing cabling and fixtures. Consider the 1.1 W power rating against maximum expected signal levels to prevent damage. Evaluate physical size constraints for in-line module installation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Mini-Circuits UNAT-A series, which offers fixed attenuators from DC to 6000 MHz. The series emphasizes excellent flatness in attenuation performance. These modules are designed for general-purpose RF applications requiring stable signal reduction without variable adjustment capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available for the UNAT-12A+. Verify exact electrical and mechanical specifications when considering alternative models from other manufacturers.
