0.5 dB LSB GaAs MMIC 6-BIT
DIGITAL ATTENUATOR, DC - 6 GHz
Power-Up States
Parallel PUP Truth Table
Using the Parallel PUP truth table the attenuator can
be turned on at a specific attenuation state. By using
the PUP1 and PUP2 line four different attenuation
states can be selected. It can also be used in the
Direct Parallel Mode using the Control Voltage Inputs
to select attenuation values.
