Description

The MSA-0286 is a high perfor­mance silicon bipolar Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) housed in a low cost, surface mount plastic package. This MMIC is designed for use as a
general purpose 50 gain block.
Typical applications include narrow and broad band IF and RF amplifiers in commercial and industrial applications.
The MSA-series is fabricated using HP’s 10 GHz fT, 25␣ GHz f silicon bipolar MMIC process which uses nitride self-alignment,
