SGA6486ZDC to 4500MHz, Cascadable SiGe HBT MMIC Ampli- fier SGA6486Z DC to 4500MHz, CASCADABLE SiGe HBT MMIC AMPLIFIER Package: SOT-86 Product Description Features The SGA6486Z is a high performance SiGe HBT MMIC Amplifier. A Darling- High Gain: 16.4dB at 1950MHz ton configuration featuring one-micron emitters provides high F and T excellent thermal performance. The heterojunction increases breakdown Cascadable 50 voltage and minimizes leakage current between junctions. Cancellation of Operates from Single Supply emitter junction non-linearities results in higher suppression of intermodu- lation products. Only two DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor, and an Low Thermal Resistance Package optional RF choke are required for operation.
