RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for Peregrine Semiconductor’s 2-bit, fast-switching digital step attenuator (DSA). The PE43205 offers 29 nS switching time when transitioning between 6, 12 or 18 dB of attenuation.

Simple, coarse attenuation is a great benefit for robust receiver gain control designs. Specified from 35 MHz to 6 GHz, the PE43205 offers IIP3 of 61 dBm for highly linear, wide dynamic range circuits.

In addition, the Peregirie PE43205 offers an extended temperature range of +105 degrees C to support passive/convection cooling in wireless infrastructure, small cell and land mobile radio applications.

The Peregrine PE43205 is packaged as a 3x3mm QFN.
