Abstract

The invention is applicable to the technical field of microwave attenuators and provides a microwave program-control step attenuator, which comprises a microwave signal input end, a microwave signal output end, microwave transmission channels, channel switching units and microwave attenuation units. The microwave signal input end is connected with the channel switching units through the microwave transmission channels. The channel switching units are connected with the microwave attenuation units through the microwave transmission channels. The microwave attenuation units are connected with the microwave signal output end through the microwave transmission channels. The microwave program-control step attenuator provided by the invention is different from an optical attenuator, uses MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) switches as the channel switching units of a microwave transmission line and enables microwaves to be switched between straight-through transmission lines and broadband attenuating sheets, so that the goals of attenuation amount program control and step attenuation are realized. By using distributed resistive attenuating sheets as the microwave attenuation units, the microwave attenuation units are enabled to have very high attenuation accuracy within a wider frequency range.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microwave attenuators, in particular to a microwave program-controlled step attenuator. Background technique [0002] The microwave program-controlled step attenuator is a common component and the core component in the microwave testing instrument. Its index and reliability have a direct impact on the performance of the microwave testing instrument. It is widely used in wideband synthetic signal sources, wideband spectrum analyzers, wideband measurement receivers, and wideband vector network analyzers. [0003] At present, microwave program-controlled step attenuators commonly used in industry are mainly electromechanical program-controlled step attenuators and electronically controlled step attenuators. Both types of attenuators have their pros and cons. [0004] The electromechanical program-controlled step attenuator uses an electromagnetic relay to drive the moving reed for microwave transmission, a...
