AV-
0805
The AV-0805 thin film surface mount temperature variable chip attenuator
is ideal for applications requiring precision attenuation with integrated
temperature compensation in a small form factor package. The attenuator
is provided in the p configuration. Thin film technology insures a low
noise, precise attenuator at a very affordable price. Eight different
temperature characteristics are available. The wraparound terminations
include a nickel barrier layer which affords excellent solderability and
mechanical integrity. This chip attenuator has the following features:
