Problems solved by technology

For similar products of microwave and millimeter wave broadband digital attenuator integrated circuits, due to the defects of the circuit topology and process implementation methods used in the design, especially when the application requirements for frequency bandwidth and large attenuation are required, the electrical performance indicators are usually difficult to meet the requirements.
The main disadvantages are: 1) the circuit topology is complex; 2) the design is difficult; 3) the process is difficult; 4) the attenuation accuracy is low; 5) the working frequency band is narrow; When changing, the accompanying signal phase changes greatly; 7) The VSWR ratio of the input and output terminals of each decay state is greatly different; 8) The yield is low; 9) Affected by process control parameters, the electrical performance consistency between circuits is poor ; 10) Larger circuit size
In particular, the large phase difference between each decay state is a common shortcoming of many similar products, which limits the wide application of this type of product in phased array radar systems and many advanced communication systems and weapon systems
