Description
M-Pulse's MP4TD0870 is a high performance silicon
bipolar MMIC housed in a hermetic high reliability
package. The MP4TD0870 is useful where a general
purpose 50
Ω
gain block with low (3.2 dB typical) noise
figure is required. Typical applications include narrow
and wide band IF and RF amplifiers in industrial and
military applications.
The MP4TD0870 is fabricated using a 10 GHz fT silicon
bipolar technology that features gold metalization and IC
passivation for increased performance and reliability.
