RFMD’s new RFSA2514/2524 5-bit digital step attenuators (DSAs) feature high linearity over their entire gain control range with excellent step accuracy in 0.5dB (RFSA2514) or 1dB (RFSA2524) steps. They are programmed via a serial mode control interface that is both 3V and 5V compatible. They also offer a rugged Class 1C HBM ESD rating via on-chip ESD circuitry. The MCM package is footprint-compatible with most 24-pin, 4mm x 4mm, QFN packages.
