Attenuators having phase shift and gain compensation circuits

摘要

Attenuators having phase shift and gain compensation circuits. In some embodiments, a radio-frequency (RF) attenuator circuit can include one or more attenuation blocks arranged in series between an input node and an output node, with each attenuation block including a local bypass path. The RF attenuator circuit can further include a global bypass path implemented between the input node and the output node. The RF attenuator circuit can further include a phase compensation circuit configured to compensate for an off-capacitance effect associated with at least one of the global bypass path and the one or more local bypass paths.
