HP MSA-0886 Cascadable silicon bipolar mmic amplifier Datasheet

Cascadable Silicon Bipolar
MMIC␣ Amplifier
Technical Data
MSA-0886
Features
Description
• Usable Gain to 5.5␣ GHz
The MSA-0886 is a high performance silicon bipolar Monolithic
Microwave Integrated Circuit
(MMIC) housed in a low cost,
surface mount plastic package.
This MMIC is designed for use as a
general purpose 50 Ω gain block
above 0.5␣ GHz and can be used as
a high gain transistor below this
frequency. Typical applications
include narrow and moderate band
IF and RF amplifiers in commercial and industrial applications.
• High Gain:
32.5 dB Typical at 0.1␣ GHz
22.5 dB Typical at 1.0␣ GHz
• Low Noise Figure:
3.3␣ dB Typical at 1.0␣ GHz
• Surface Mount Plastic
Package
• Tape-and-Reel Packaging
Option Available[1]
Note:
1. Refer to PACKAGING section “Tapeand-Reel Packaging for Semiconductor Devices.”
The MSA-series is fabricated using
HP’s 10 GHz fT, 25␣ GHz f MAX,
silicon bipolar MMIC process
which uses nitride self-alignment,

The use of an external bias resistor
for temperature and current
stability also allows bias flexibility.
