Description
The
MAPCGM0002-Die
is a 6-bit Phase Shifter with Parallel
TTL Input Control. This product is fully matched to 50 ohms
on both the input and output. The part has 360 of phase
coverage with LSB of 5.6.
Each device is 100% RF tested on wafer to ensure
performance compliance. The part is fabricated using
M/A-COM's repeatable, high performance and highly
reliable GaAs Multifunction Self-Aligned Gate (MSAG
)
MESFET Process.
