Package
Description
The INA-10386 is a low-noise
silicon bipolar Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC)
feedback amplifier housed in a
low cost surface mount plastic
package. It is designed for narrow
or wide bandwidth commercial
and industrial applications that
require high gain and moderate
power.
The INA series of MMICs is
fabricated using HP’s 10 GHz fT,
25␣ GHz f MAX, ISOSAT™-I silicon
bipolar process which uses nitride
self-alignment, submicrometer
lithography, trench isolation, ion
implantation, gold metallization
and polyimide intermetal dielectric and scratch protection to
achieve excellent performance,
uniformity and reliability.
