Description
M-Pulse's MP4TD0835 and MP4TD0836 are high
performance silicon bipolar MMIC housed in a cost
effective ceramic microstrip package. The MP4TD0835
and MP4TD0836 are designed for use where a low
noise (3.2 dB typical) general purpose 50
gain block is
required. Typical applications include narrow and wide
band IF and RF amplifiers in industrial and military
applications.
The MP4TD0835 and MP4TD0836 are fabricated using
a 10 GHz fT silicon bipolar technology that features gold
metalization and IC passivation for increased
performance and reliability.
