PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The MAT01 is a monolithic dual NPN transistor. An exclusive
Silicon Nitride “Triple-Passivation” process provides excellent
stability of critical parameters over both temperature and time.
Matching characteristics include offset voltage of 40 µV, tem-
perature drift of 0.15 µV/°C, and h
high h
including an exceptional h
10 nA. The high gain at low collector current makes the
MAT01 ideal for use in low power, low level input stages.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the MAT01 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

APPLICATION NOTES
Application of reverse bias voltages to the emitter-base junctions
in excess of ratings (5 V) may result in degradation of h
h
matching characteristics. Circuit designs should be checked
FE
to ensure that reverse bias voltages above 5 V cannot be applied
during such transient conditions as at circuit turn-on and
turn-off.
Stray thermoelectric voltages generated by dissimilar metals at
the contacts to the input terminals can prevent realization of the
predicted drift performance. Both input terminals should be
maintained at the same temperature, preferably close to the
temperature of the device’s package.
