MSA-0300 Cascadable Silicon Bipolar MMIC Amplifier

Data Sheet

The MSA-0300 is a high performance silicon bipolar Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit MMIC chip. 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, industrial and military applications.

The MSA-series is fabricated using HP’s 10 GHz fT, 25 GHz fMAX, silicon bipolar MMIC process which uses nitride selfalignment, ion implantation, and gold metallization to achieve excellent performance, uniformity and reliability. The use of an external bias resistor for temperature and current stability also allows bias flexibility.

The recommended assembly procedure is gold-eutectic die attach at 400°C and either wedge or ball bonding using mil gold wire.[1] See APPLICATIONS section, “Chip Use”.
