Stanford Microdevices’ SNA-586 is a high performance Gallium
Arsenide Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor MMIC Amplifier. A
Darlington configuration is utilized for broadband performance
up to 5 GHz. The heterojunction increases breakdown voltage
and minimizes leakage current between junctions. Cancellation
of emitter junction non-linearities results in higher suppression of
intermodulation products. Typical IP3 at 850 MHz with 65mA is
32.5 dBm.
These unconditionally stable amplifiers provide 18 dB of gain and
18.4 dBm of 1dB compressed power and require only a single
positive voltage supply. Only 2 DC-blocking capacitors, a bias
resistor and an optional inductor are needed for operation. This
MMIC is an ideal choice for wireless applications such as
cellular, PCS, CDPD, wireless data and SONET.
