SNA-200S

Product Description Sirenza Microdevices’ SNA-200 is a GaAs monolithic broadband amplifier (MMIC) in die form. At 1950 MHz, this amplifier provides 15.5dB and 13.8dB at 6000 MHz. These unconditionally stable amplifiers are designed for use as general purpose 50 ohm gain blocks. Its small size (0.350m x 0.345mm) and gold metallization make it an ideal choice for use in hybrid circuits. The SNA-200 is 100% DC tested and sample tested for RF performance. External DC decoupling capacitors determine low frequency response. The use of an external resistor allows for bias flexibility and stability. The SNA-200 is supplied in gel paks at 100 devices per pak. Also available in packaged form (SNA-276 & SNA-286) Output Power vs. Frequency 14 13 SNA-200S DC-6.5 GHz, Cascadable GaAs HBT MMIC Amplifier Product Features • Cascadable 50 Ohm Gain Block • 15.5dB Gain, +12dBm P1dB • 1.5:1 Input and Output VSWR • Operates From Single Supply • Through wafer via for ground Applications • Broadband Driver Amplifier • IF Amplifier or gain stage for VSAT, LMDS, WLAN, and Cellular Systems dBm 12 11 10 0.5 1 1.5 2 4 6 8 10 GHz Symbol Gp Parameter Small Signal Power Gain [2] Units dB dB dB dB dB GHz dBm dBm dBm dBm dB dB dB V mA dB/°C °C/W Frequency 850 MHz 1950 MHz 2400 MHz 6000 MHz 0.1-4.0 GHz 1950 MHz 6000 MHz 1950 MHz 6000 MHz 1950 MHz 1950 0.1-7.0 GHz Min. 13.5 12.3 Typ. 15.5 15.0 15.0 13.8 +/- 1.0 7 12.0 12.2 25.0 24.5 5.5 12.9 20 3.6 40 -0.0018 270 Max. 16.5 15.3 GF Gain Ripple BW3dB 3dB Bandwidth P1dB OIP 3 NF RL ISOL VD ID dG/dT RTH , j-b Output Power at 1dB Compression [2] Output Third Order Intercept Point [2] Noise Figure Input / Output Return Loss Reverse Isolation Device Operating Voltage [1] Device Operating Current [1] Device Gain Temperature Coefficient Thermal Resistance (junction to backside) 10 10.2 22 21.5 3.1 35 4.1 45 VS = 8 V Test Conditions: R = 110 Ohms BIAS ID = 40 mA Typ.
