IRC Advanced Film Division
The PAT-W series high performance chip attenuator provides
excellent high frequency performance at power ratings up to 500mW.
The wrap-around construction provides reliable low cost, surface mount
assembly. Long term operational stability is achieved from the thin film construction. Typical uses include
applications in medical, industrial, and communications.
