MSA-0520
Cascadable Silicon Bipolar MMIC Amplifier
Data Sheet
Description
Features
The MSA-0520 is a high performance silicon bipolar
Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) housed
in a hermetic, BeO disk package for good thermal
characteristics. 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.
