SGA2263Z

DC to 5000MHz, CASCADABLE SiGe HBT

MMIC AMPLIFIER

The SGA2263Z is a high performance SiGe HBT MMIC Amplifier. A Darlington con-

formance. The heterojunction increases breakdown voltage and minimizes leakage

current between junctions. Cancellation of emitter junction non-linearities results in

higher suppression of intermodulation products. Only two DC-blocking capacitors, a

bias resistor, and an optional RF choke are required for operation.
