Product Description
Features
RFMD’s SGC-6389Z is a high performance SiGe HBT MMIC amplifier utiliz-  Single Fixed 5V Supply
ing a Darlington configuration with a patented active-bias network. The
active bias network provides stable current over temperature and process
 No Dropping Resistor
Required
Beta variations. Designed to run directly from a 5V supply, the SGC-6389Z
does not require a dropping resistor as compared to traditional Darlington
amplifiers. The SGC-6389Z product is designed for high linearity 5V gain
S block applications that require small size and minimal external compo-
nents. It is internally matched to 50.
