MSA-0786 Cascadable Silicon Bipolar MMIC Amplifi er Data Sheet Description Features The MSA-0786 is a high performance silicon bipolar Cascadable 50 Gain Block Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) housed Low Operating Voltage: 4.0 V Typical V d in a low cost, surface mount plastic package. This MMIC 3 dB Bandwidth: DC to 2.0 GHz is designed for use as a general purpose 50 gain block. Applications include narrow and broad band IF and RF 12.5 dB Typical at 1.0 GHz amplifi ers in commercial and industrial applications. Unconditionally Stable (k>1) The MSA-series is fabricated using Avagos 10 GHz f , T Surface Mount Plastic Package 25 GHz f , silicon bipolar MMIC process which uses MAX Tape-and-Reel Packaging Available nitride self-alignment, ion implantation, and gold metal- Lead-free Option Available lization to achieve excellent performance, uniformity and reliability. The use of an external bias resistor for tempera- ture and current stability also allows bias fl exibility. 86 Plastic Package Typical Biasing Confi guration R bias V t 5 V CC RFC (Optional) 4 C C block block 3 MSA IN OUT 1 V = 4 V d 2MSA-0786 Absolute Maximum Ratings 1 2 Parameter Absolute Maximum Thermal Resistance : = 120C/W jc Device Current 60 mA Notes: 2, 3 Power Dissipation 275 mW 1.
