DESCRIPTION
THAT140 is a quad, large-geometry monolithic
NPN/PNP transistor array which combines low noise,
high speed and excellent parametric matching. The
large geometries typically result in 25 W base spread-
ing resistance for the PNP devices (30 W for the
NPNs), producing 0.75
nV Hz
voltage noise (0.8
nV Hz
for the NPNs). This makes these parts an
ideal choice for low-noise amplifier input stages.
Fabricated on a Complementary Bipolar Dielec-
trically Isolated process, all four transistors are elec-
trically isolated from each other by a layer of oxide.
The resulting low collector-to-substrate capacitance
produces a typical NPN f
t
of 350 MHz, 325 Mhz for
the PNPs. This delivers AC performance similar to
discrete
2N3904-
and
2N3906-class
devices.
Dielectric isolation also minimizes crosstalk and
provides complete DC isolation.
Substrate biasing is not required for normal oper-
ation, though the substrate should be grounded to
optimize speed. The monolithic construction assures
excellent parameter matching and tracking over tem-
perature.
