Cascadable Silicon Bipolar MMIC Amplifier
Data Sheet
Description
Features
The MSA-0505 is a high performance medium power
silicon bipolar Monolithic Microwave Integrated ­ Circuit
(MMIC) housed in a low cost, surface mount package.
This MMIC is designed for use as a general purpose 50Ω
gain block. Typical applications include narrow and broad
band IF and RF amplifiers in ­commercial ­systems.
The MSA-series is fabricated using Avago’s 10 GHz
f_T, 25 GHz f_MAX, silicon bipolar MMIC process which
uses nitride self-alignment, ion implantation, and
gold ­ metallization to achieve excellent performance,
­uniformity and reliability. The use of an external bias
resistor for temperature and current stability also ­allows
bias flexibility.
