Keysight / Agilent / HP 84906K Programmable Step Attenuator Overview
Features:
- DC to 26.5 GHz or DC to 40 GHz Frequency Coverage
- 0 to 11 dB, 0 to 70 dB or 0 to 90 dB Attenuation
- 1 dB Steps or 10 dB Steps
- High Accuracy
This latest design evolution sets new standards for size and performance. High attenuation accuracy and low SWR are achieved through the use of miniature thin-film attenuation cards composed of high-stability tantalum nitride film on a sapphire substrate. Insertion loss performance is outstanding, with less than 2 dB of loss at 26.5 GHz and only 2.4 dB at 40 GHz.
The Keysight / Agilent / HP 84904/6/7K/L Programmable step attenuators offers three connector types. For operation to 40 GHz, the 84904/6/7L models offer either the 2.4 mm connector, which is recommended for top performance and for rugged and repeatable connections, or the 2.92 mm connector, which is compatible with SMA and 3.5 mm connectors but is more delicate. For operation to 26.5 GHz, the 84904/6/7K models offer the 3.5 mm connector. This connector is compatible with SMA and 2.92 connectors, but is more rugged. Each model in the 84904/6/7K and L family comes with two female connectors (standard) or may be ordered with one female and one male connector for easy insertion into a microwave chain or to combine the 1 dB step 84904 with a 10 dB step 84906 or 84907 to cover an attenuation range of 121 dB or 81 dB in 1 dB steps.
The Agilent 84906K Programmable Step Attenuator may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
Programmable Step Attenuator Price & Specs
Keysight / Agilent / HP 84906K Programmable Step Attenuator Description
Functions
Programmable step attenuator providing precise signal level control from DC to 26.5 GHz with 0-90 dB attenuation range in 10 dB increments. Features electronic control via 24 VDC supply enabling automated test setups and remote operation. Utilizes 3.5mm female connectors for compatibility with microwave test systems.
Platforms
A programmable electromechanical step attenuator providing calibrated signal level control from 0 to 90 dB in 10 dB increments over a DC to 26.5 GHz frequency range. It operates within RF/microwave test systems, requiring a 24 VDC supply for solenoid switching. The device integrates into the signal path via dual 3.5mm female RF connectors and is controlled through a dedicated logic interface.
Applications
Attenuation of RF signals across a DC to 26.5 GHz frequency range, adjustable in 10 dB steps from 0 to 90 dB. Hardware platform consists of an internal electromechanical switch network controlled via a 24 VDC supply. RF input and output use 3.5 mm female connectors, interfacing with other RF equipment.
