Operating Instructions
The MAATSS0017 is designed to operate with 5 V
logic levels. The difference between +3 V and +5
V operation is minimal for small signal perform-
ance. IIP3, however, is a strong function of volt-
age. +3 V is the minimum voltage at which the
product will reliably operate.
The MAATSS0017 requires a parallel interface that
allows the user to enter a 5 bit digital word. Each
state increments the attenuation by 0.5 dB giving a
total range of 15.5 dB.
The MAATSS0017 is not internally DC blocked.
This means that the device requires DC blocking
capacitors on the RF1 and RF2 ports. M/A-COM
recommends 0.1 uF to allow for the entire fre-
quency range to be utilized. Higher frequency
applications can use smaller value capacitors as
DC blocks.
