NEC's UPC8204TK is a silicon monolithic integrated circuit
designed as variable gain amplifier. The package is 6-pin lead-
less minimold suitable for surface mount.
This IC is manufactured using NEC's 30 GHz f
max
UHS0 (Ultra
High Speed Process) silicon bipolar process.
This IC has the same circuit current as conventional UPC8119T
and UPC8120T, but it operates at higher frequency and
features a wider gain control range.

PIN FUNCTIONS
RF input pin This pin should be
coupled with capacitor (eg 1000 pF)
for DC cut. Input return loss can be
improved with external impedance
matching circuit.
Voltage as same
as V
CC
through
external inductor
Ground pin. This pin should be
connected to system ground with
minimum inductance. Ground
pattern on the board should be
formed as wide as possible. Ground
pins must be connected together with
wide ground pattern to decrease
impedance difference.
RF output pin. This pin is designed
as open collector of high impedance.
This pin must be externally equipped
with matching circuits.
Supply voltage pin. this pin must be
equipped with bypass capacitor
(eg 1000 pF) to minimize its RF
impedance.
Gain control pin.
