AMMP-6630-TR2G

Attenuators

Attenuators are electronic components used for reducing the amplitude of a signal without substantially distorting its waveform. These components are typically strategically placed in the signal chain to reduce overall signal gain, allowing other components or systems to function properly or as intended. Attenuators are especially useful when dealing with high-power signals or signals with different levels of amplitude that would otherwise be difficult to process or control.

AMMP-6630-TR2G Application Field and Working Principle

The AMMP-6630-TR2G is an attenuator primarily designed for radio frequency (RF) applications, such as those encountered in telecoms networks. The device is available in SMA, SMB, mini-SMA, and BNC connector types, allowing for easy integration with standard RF test equipment. It has an insertion loss of less than 0.25 dB, making it ideal for high-fidelity applications. It operates within the frequency range of 0.1 GHz to 6.2 GHz and can provide power handling of up to +25 dBm with a P1dB compression point of +18 dBm.

The AMMP-6630-TR2G uses a ferrite-based optical coupler to create a variable, non-distorting attenuator. The coupler utilizes dual symmetrical signal pathways overlapping each other. Signals from one pathway are combined with those from the other pathway before they reach the output port, and the amount of signal overlap determines the device’s attenuation level. The included input and output coaxial cables with adjustable length allow for easy connection to other equipment.

The AMMP-6630-TR2G is a compact, cost effective solution for attenuating signals in telecoms applications. It offers a wide range of attenuation values and a broad frequency range, making it ideal for a variety of common RF applications. It boasts a 0.25 dB insertion loss, which ensures no signal degradation, and its adjustable input and output cables make integration easy and uncomplicated.
