IMA Series Surface Mount
Thick Film Attenuator
T-Pad Family
IMA Series T-Pad family surface mount thick film attenuators are
compact, high performance devices especially suited to RF and
microwave applications. Performance is based on the attenuator
operating in a matched continuous 50 ohm system, with proper
device mounting and workmanship.
