ADA-4643
Silicon Bipolar Darlington Amplifier
Data Sheet
Description
Avago Technologies’ ADA-4643 is an economical, easy-to-
use, general purpose silicon bipolar RFIC gain block am-
plifiers housed in a 4-lead SC-70 (SOT-343) surface mount
plastic package which requires only half the board space
of a SOT-143 package.
The Darlington feedback structure provides inherent
broad bandwidth performance, resulting in useful ope-
rating frequency up to 2.5 GHz. This is an ideal device for
small-signal gain cascades or IF amplification.
ADA-4643 is fabricated using Avago’s HP25 silicon bipolar
process, which employs a double-diffused single poly-
silicon process with self-aligned submicron emitter
geometry. The process is capable of simultaneous high fT
and high NPN breakdown (25 GHz fT at 6 V BVCEO). The
process utilizes industry standard device oxide isolation
technologies and submicron aluminum multilayer inter-
connect to achieve superior performance, high uniformity,
and proven reliability.
