TSX Series Fixed Chip Attenuators Smiths Interconnect is a leading provider of chip attenuators offering the widest selection of products from DC to Q-band, backed by proven performance and significant heritage. Chip components are offered on Alumina, Aluminum Nitride, Beryllium Oxide, and CVD Diamond for a wide range of applications. TSX Chip Attenuators offers excellent performance and power from DC-50 GHz in a small 0604 package size. The TSX Series of chip attenuators pushes the boundaries of Size, Weight and Power in a cost effective, easy to implement surface mount solution, suitable for a wide array of applications. ■ Small form factor - Reduces overall footprint The TSX Series offers excellent broadband RF performance to 50 GHz while delivering increased power handling in a small surface mount format factor. ■ Broad frequency range – Reduces BOM count ■ Surface mountable – Ideal for pick and place applications ■ Low VSWR – Increases transmitted power ■ Wide range of attenuation values – 1-10, 15 and 20dB The chip attenuator design offers 1 to 3 watts of power handling performance and multiple attenuation values are available for surface mounting. The use of a robust, proven all thin film process technology on an alumina substrate provides a product suitable for harsh environments, such as those of Space and Defense applications. ■ Tight attenuation tolerance – For optimal performance Applications ■ Amplifier Circuits ■ Transmit/Receive Modules ■ Up/Down Converters ■ Instrumentation ■ Satellite
