1 USB/RS3 Variable Attenuator 5Ω.1 db step, -3 MHz The Big Deal Very fine attenuation resolution (.1 db) Glitchless transitions ( db glitch) USB and RS3 control Applications Signal level calibration Gain control feedback circuits Automated test equipment (ATE) Control systems Product Overview Software Package Case Style: QF5 Included Accessories Model No. Description Qty. MUSB-CBL-3+. ft. USB cable 1 RoHS Compliant See our web site for RoHS Compliance methodologies and qualifications Mini Circuits is a 5 Ω RF variable attenuator which combines the performance benefits of a voltage variable design with the convenience and ease-of-use of a software controlled step attenuator. This model operates from MHz to 3 GHz with fine attenuation steps of.1 db and monotonic attenuation transitions, meaning no uncontrolled 'glitches' when transitioning from one attenuation to the next. The attenuator is housed in a compact and rugged package with SMA female connectors for the bi-directional input and output RF ports, a standard 9 pin D-Sub and a USB type Mini-B for power and control. The attenuator can be controlled via USB or RS3 (via D-Sub connector). Full software support is provided and can be downloaded from our website any time at The software package includes our user-friendly GUI application for Windows and a full API with programming instructions for Windows and Linux environments, both 3-bit and -bit systems. Key Features Feature Novel hybrid design High speed attenuation sequences USB & RS3 control High linearity Advantages Combination of voltage variable PIN diodes with digital interface provides very fine attenuation steps (.1 db) and glitchless transitions between states Integrated memory / microcontroller allows custom attenuation sequences to be preprogrammed and executed at high speed, with as little as 9 µs per step Full software support provided for quick & easy control via USB & RS3, with DC power also supplied via either interface Typical IP3 of +5 dbm reduces signal distortion to minimize the impact of the device on sensitive transmitter / receiver measurements Trademarks: Windows is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and other countries.

There might be minor changes in the performance when input and output ports are reversed. The attenuator will initially power up in Max attenuation state, after a brief delay (~.5 sec typically) the attenuator will revert to a user defined power-up state (either max attenuation or a pre-set value). 3 Attenuation atness is defined as the variation over frequency of the attenuation level. Minimum Dwell Time is the time the ZVVA will take to respond to a command to change attenuation states without communication delays. In "PC control" add communication delays (on the order of ms for USB) to get actual response time. 5 Attenuation Transition Time is specified as the time between starting to change the attenuation state and settling on the requested attenuation state. Power on sequence for RS3 control: First power on 5V supply voltage before any control signal is given. Absolute Maximum Ratings Operating Temperature C to 5 C Storage Temperature - C to 85 C Voltage input at D-Sub Pin#3-3V to +3V Voltage input at D-Sub Pin# V to +V Voltage input at D-Sub Pin#1-1V to +V V USB Max.

Operating in the range between operating power limits and absolute maximum ratings for extended periods of time may result in reduced life and reliability. P.O.
