Product Description
BeRex’s BGS5 is a high SiGe HBT MMIC am-
plifier, internally matched to 50 Ohms with-
out the need for external components. De-
signed to run directly from a 3V supply. The
BGS5 is designed for high linearity 3V gain
block applications . It is packaged in a RoHS-
compliant with SOT-363 surface mount
package.
Applications
 Driver Amplifier
 Cellular, PCS, GSM, UMTS, WCDMA
