SGA-5389 RoHS Compliant & Green Package Product Description SGA-5389Z The SGA-5389 is a high performance SiGe HBT MMIC Amplifier. A Darlington configuration featuring 1 micron emitters provides high FT and excellent thermal perfomance. The heterojunction increases breakdown voltage and minimizes leakage current between junctions. Cancellation of emitter junction nonlinearities results in higher suppression of intermodulation products. Only 2 DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor and an optional RF choke are required for operation. DC-4500 MHz, Cascadable SiGe HBT MMIC Amplifier Pb The matte tin finish on Sirenza’s lead-free package utilizes a Product Features post annealing process to mitigate tin whisker formation and is • Now available in Lead Free, RoHS RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2002/95. This package is also Compliant, & Green Packaging manufactured with green molding compounds that contain no • High Gain : 15.4 dB at 1950 MHz antimony trioxide nor halogenated fire retardants. • Cascadable 50 Ohm • Operates From Single Supply • Low Thermal Resistance Package Gain & Return Loss vs. Frequency VD= 3.6 V, ID= 60 mA (Typ.) 20 0 GAIN -10 ORL 10 -20 IRL 5 -30 0 Applications Return Loss (dB) Gain (dB) 15 • • • • PA Driver Amplifier Cellular, PCS, GSM, UMTS IF Amplifier Wireless Data, Satellite -40 0 1 2 3 4 Frequency (GHz) Symbol G 5 6 Parameter Small Signal G ain Units Frequency Min.

Use a large ground pad area with many plated through-holes as shown. 3. We recommend 1 or 2 ounce copper. Measurement for this data sheet were made on a 31 mil thick FR-4 board with 1 ounce copper on both sides. CB CB Part Identification Marking 4 4 A53 A53Z Pin # Function 1 RF IN RF input pin. This pin requires the use of an external DC blocking capacitor chosen for the frequency of operation. 2, 4 GND Connection to ground. Use via holes for best performance to reduce lead inductance as close to ground leads as possible. 2 RF OUT/ RF output and bias pin. DC voltage is BIAS present on this pin, therefore a DC blocking capacitor is necessary for proper operation. 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 1 2 3 3 Caution: ESD sensitive Description Part Number Ordering Information Appropriate precautions in handling, packaging and testing devices must be observed.
