    Abstract: An adjustable power splitter includes: a power divider with an input and a first and second divider output; a first adjustable phase shifter and first adjustable attenuator series coupled to the first divider output and providing a first power output; a second adjustable phase shifter and second adjustable attenuator series coupled to the second divider output and providing a second power output; an interface; and a controller. The controller is configured to receive, via the interface, data indicating phase shifts to be applied by the first and second adjustable phase shifters and attenuation levels to be applied by the first and second adjustable attenuators, and to control, based on the data, the phase shifts and attenuation levels applied by the first and second adjustable phase shifters and the first and second adjustable attenuators.

    Abstract: Apparatus (301) for switchable attenuation of a differential input signal from a microphone includes positive and negative non-attenuating paths (406, 410) have n- and p-type MOSFETs (421, 422, 423, 424) in back-to-back configurations; positive and negative attenuating paths (405, 409) have n- and p-type MOSFETs (415, 416, 418, 419) in back-to-back configurations in combination with resistors; a gate driver (425) applies a drive signal of one polarity (QNEG) to gates of the n-type MOSFETs in the attenuating paths and the p-type MOSFETs in the non-attenuating paths, and a drive signal of opposite polarity (QPOS) to the gates of the p-type MOSFETs in the attenuating paths and the n-type MOSFETs in the non-attenuating paths; and the state of the MOSFETs depends on the drive signals at their gates, and thus the input signal may be routed via either the non-attenuating paths or the attenuating paths by controlling the drive signals.
