Anaren SMT attenuators PR PhotoRichardson RFPD, Inc. announces immediate availability and full design support capabilities for three new surface-mount technology (SMT) high-power attenuators from Anaren.

These 30 to 50 W devicesare high-performance; high-power chip attenuators covering from DC to 3.0 GHz and featuring high return loss and small footprints. Their high power-handling makes them well-suited for inter-stage matching, directional couplers, isolators, terminating circulators, and power monitoring. Their SMT packaging makes them available for automatic placement.

The new attenuators are ideal for cellular applications in all frequency bands, including AMPS, GSM, DCS, PCS, PHS and UMTS, as well as land mobile and military communications applications.
