AV113-12, AV113-12LF: HIP3™ Variable Attenuator
2.1–2.3 GHz
Features
●Low Loss 1.4 dB typical
●Attenuation 18 dB typical
●Good VSWR <1.5:1 typical
●Small SOIC-8 package
●For IMT-2000 applications
●Available lead (Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant MSL-1 @ 260 °C
per JEDEC J-STD-020
Description
The AV113-12 is a current controlled, variable attenuator from
Skyworks series of HIP3™ components. It is designed to meet
the wide dynamic range required in IMT-2000 applications. A
monolithic quadrature hybrid is teamed with a silicon PIN diode
pair in a plastic surface mount package, reducing size and
assuring consistency from part to part. AV113-12LF is packaged
in a lead (Pb)-free, fully RoHS-compliant SOIC-8 package and is
electrically identical to AV113-12.
Skyworks offers lead (Pb)-free, RoHS (Restriction of
Hazardous Substances)-compliant packaging.

Performance is guaranteed only under the conditions listed in the specifications table and is
not guaranteed under the full range(s) described by the Absolute Maximum specifications.
Exceeding any of the absolute maximum/minimum specifications may result in permanent
damage to the device and will void the warranty.
CAUTION: Although this device is designed to be as robust as
possible, ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) can damage
this device. This device must be protected at all times
from ESD. Static charges may easily produce poten-
tials of several kilovolts on the human body or
equipment, which can discharge without detection.
Industry-standard ESD precautions must be employed
at all times.
