Description

The MSA-0420 is a high performance silicon bipolar Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) housed in a hermetic, high reliability 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 industrial and military applications. The MSA-series is fabricated using Avago’s 10 GHz fT, 25 GHz fMAX, 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. Typical Biasing Configuration Cblock Cblock Rbias VCC > 10 V Vd = 6.3 V RFC (Optional) IN OUTMSA

The recommended operating current range for this device is 40 to 110 mA. Typical performance as a function of current is on the following page. Electrical Specifications [1], TA = 25°C Symbol Parameters and Test Conditions: Id = 90 mA, ZO = 50 Ω Units Min. Typ. Max. VSWR Notes: 1. Permanent damage may occur if any of these limits are exceeded. 2. T CASE = 25°C. 3. Derate at 25 mW/°C for TC > 166°C. 4. The small spot size of this technique results in a higher, though more accurate determination of qjc than do alternate methods.
