Description:
Mi-Wave’s 511 Series Precision Programmable Rotary Vane Attenuators are available in full waveguide bands from 7.0 to 220GHz. Attenuation control is performed manually via a front panel or remote controlled using a standard IEEE-488 or USB interface.
Features
• Attenuation from 0 to 70 dB
• USB & IEEE-488 Interface
• Full Band Operation
• Higher speed
• Less than 2sec. to change attenuation level from 0 to 70 dB
• Mode free
• Significantly quiet operation
• Programmable GPIB address (now goes up to 30)
• “xx.xx dB Command Complete,” message sent via USB or GPIB after attenuation level is reached
• LED buttons for changing Attenuation levels
• Improved resolution with 0.01 steps from 0 to 70 dB
• Backlit display
• Integrated shutdown safety feature in the event of failure
• MTBF more that 1 million cycles

J-Band Programmable Rotary Vane Attenuators
The attenuators small compact size incorporates both the electronic controller and the microwave components. The unit operates from a single +24 Volt DC source or with an optional adapter. Attenuation range is from 0 to 70 dB in .01 dB steps from 0 to 70 dB.
A digital readout is provided on the front panel to display attenuation settings. USB & GPIB interface available. Tested to over 1 million cycles. New company proprietary internal absorbing material that will handle high power levels and yield low insertion loss and mode free operation to 70 dB attenuation levels
