Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC346LP3 is an absorptive Voltage Variable Attenuator (VVA) in a low cost leadless surface mount plastic package operating from DC - 14 GHz. It features an on-chip reference attenuator for use with an external op-amp to provide simple single voltage attenuation control, 0 to -3V. The device is ideal in designs where an analog DC control signal must control RF signal levels over a 30 dB amplitude range. This VVA is an excellent alternative to the HMC121C8.

ATTENUATORS - SMT
The circuit board used in the final application should be generated with proper RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines at the RF ports should be 50 ohm impedance and the package ground leads and package bottom should be connected directly to the PCB RF ground plane, similar to that shown above. The evaluation circuit board shown above is available from Hittite Microwave Corporation upon request.
