SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA
The MRFIC Line
The MRFIC0916 is a cost–effective, high isolation cascode silicon monolithic amplifier in the industry standard SOT–143 surface mount package designed for general purpose RF applications. On chip bias circuitry sets the
bias point while matching is accomplished off chip affording the maximum in
application flexibility.
• Usable Frequency Range = 100 to 2500 MHz
• 18.5 dB typical gain at 850 MHz, VCC = 2.7 Volts
• 2.3 dBm typical Output Power at 1 dB Gain Compression at
850 MHz, VCC = 2.7 Volts
• 44 dB Typical Reverse Isolation at 850 MHz
• 5.6 mA Max Bias Current at VCC = 2.7 Volts
• 2.7 to 5 Volt Supply
• Available in Tape and Reel by Adding T1 Suffix to Part Number.
T1 Suffix = 3,000 Units per 8 mm, 7 inch Reel.
• Device Marking = 16
