µPC2709TB
5 V, SUPER MINIMOLD SILICON MMIC
MEDIUM OUTPUT POWER AMPLIFIER
DESCRIPTION
The µPC2709TB is a silicon monolithic integrated circuits designed as 1st IF amplifier for DBS tuners. This IC is
packaged in super minimold package which is smaller than conventional minimold.
The µPC2709TB has compatible pin connections and performance to µPC2709T of conventional minimold
version. So, in the case of reducing your system size, µPC2709TB is suitable to replace from µPC2709T.
These IC is manufactured using NEC’s 20 GHz fT NESAT™III silicon bipolar process. This process uses silicon
nitride passivation film and gold electrodes. These materials can protect chip surface from external pollution and
prevent corrosion/migration. Thus, this IC has excellent performance, uniformity and reliability.

Function and applications
Signal input pin. A internal
matching circuit, configured with
resistors, enables 50 Ω connection over a wide band.
A multi-feedback circuit is designed to cancel the deviations of
hFE and resistance.
This pin must be coupled to signal source with capacitor for DC
cut.
Signal output pin. The inductor
must be attached between VCC
and output pins to supply current
to the internal output transistors.
Power supply pin, which biases
the internal input transistor.
This pin should be externally
equipped with bypass capacitor
to minimize its impedance.
Ground pin. This pin should be
connected to system ground with
minimum inductance. Ground
pattern on the board should be
formed as wide as possible.
All the ground pins must be connected together with wide ground
pattern to decrease impedance
defference.
Note Pin voltage is measured at VCC = 5.0 V

INDUCTOR FOR THE OUTPUT PIN
The internal output transistor of this IC consumes 20 mA, to output medium power. To supply current for output
transistor, connect an inductor between the VCC pin (pin 6) and output pin (pin 4). Select large value inductance, as
listed above.
The inductor has both DC and AC effects. In terms of DC, the inductor biases the output transistor with minimum
voltage drop to output enable high level. In terms of AC, the inductor make output-port impedance higher to get
enough gain. In this case, large inductance and Q is suitable.
CAPACITORS FOR THE VCC, INPUT, AND OUTPUT PINS
Capacitors of 1 000 pF are recommendable as the bypass capacitor for the VCC pin and the coupling capacitors
for the input and output pins.
The bypass capacitor connected to the VCC pin is used to minimize ground impedance of VCC pin. So, stable bias
can be supplied against VCC fluctuation.
The coupling capacitors, connected to the input and output pins, are used to cut the DC and minimize RF serial
impedance. Their capacitance are therefore selected as lower impedance against a 50 Ω load. The capacitors thus
perform as high pass filters, suppressing low frequencies to DC.
To obtain a flat gain from 100 MHz upwards, 1 000 pF capacitors are used in the test circuit. In the case of under
10 MHz operation, increase the value of coupling capacitor such as 10 000 pF. Because the coupling capacitors are
determined by equation, C = 1/(2 πRfc).

NOTES ON CORRECT USE
(1) Observe precautions for handling because of electro-static sensitive devices.
(2) Form a ground pattern as widely as possible to minimize ground impedance (to prevent undesired oscillation).
All the ground pins must be connected together with wide ground pattern to decrease impedance difference.
(3) The bypass capacitor should be attached to the VCC pin.
(4) The inductor must be attached between VCC and output pins. The inductance value should be determined in
accordance with desired frequency.
(5) The DC cut capacitor must be attached to input pin.

of such device. No license, either express, implied or otherwise, is granted under any patents, copyrights or other
intellectual property rights of NEC Corporation or others.
• Descriptions of circuits, software, and other related information in this document are provided for illustrative
purposes in semiconductor product operation and application examples. The incorporation of these circuits,
software, and information in the design of the customer's equipment shall be done under the full responsibility
of the customer. NEC Corporation assumes no responsibility for any losses incurred by the customer or third
parties arising from the use of these circuits, software, and information.
• While NEC Corporation has been making continuous effort to enhance the reliability of its semiconductor devices,
the possibility of defects cannot be eliminated entirely. To minimize risks of damage or injury to persons or
property arising from a defect in an NEC semiconductor device, customers must incorporate sufficient safety
measures in its design, such as redundancy, fire-containment, and anti-failure features.
• NEC devices are classified into the following three quality grades:
"Standard", "Special", and "Specific". The Specific quality grade applies only to devices developed based on a
customer designated "quality assurance program" for a specific application. The recommended applications of
a device depend on its quality grade, as indicated below. Customers must check the quality grade of each device
before using it in a particular application.
Standard: Computers, office equipment, communications equipment, test and measurement equipment,
audio and visual equipment, home electronic appliances, machine tools, personal electronic
equipment and industrial robots
Special: Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.), traffic control systems, anti-disaster
systems, anti-crime systems, safety equipment and medical equipment (not specifically designed
for life support)
Specific: Aircraft, aerospace equipment, submersible repeaters, nuclear reactor control systems, life
support systems or medical equipment for life support, etc.
The quality grade of NEC devices is "Standard" unless otherwise specified in NEC's Data Sheets or Data Books.
If customers intend to use NEC devices for applications other than those specified for Standard quality grade,
they should contact an NEC sales representative in advance.
