Agilent ADA-4543 Silicon Bipolar Darlington Amplifier Data Sheet Features • Small Signal gain amplifier • Operating frequency DC – 2.5 GHz The Darlington feedback structure provides inherent broad bandwidth performance, resulting in useful operating frequency up to 2.5 GHz. This is an ideal device for small-signal gain cascades or IF amplification. ADA-4543 is fabricated using Agilent’s HP25 silicon bipolar process, which employs a doublediffused single polysilicon process with self-aligned submicron emitter geometry. The process is capable of simultaneous high fT and high NPN breakdown (25 GHz fT at 6V BVCEO). The process utilizes industry standard device oxide isolation technologies and submicron aluminum multilayer interconnect to achieve superior performance, high uniformity, and proven reliability. • Unconditionally stable Surface Mount Package SOT-343 • 50 Ohms input & output • Flat, Broadband Frequency Response up to 1 GHz • Operating Current: 10 to 30 mA • Industry standard SOT-343 package • Lead-free option available Pin Connections and Package Marking RFout & Vd Specifications 900 MHz, 3.4V, 15 mA (typ.)
