DESCRIPTION
Gain, GP (dB)
Tuned at 1.9 GHz
NEC's UPC8151TB is a silicon RFIC designed as a buffer amplifier for cellular or cordless telephones. This low current amplifier operates on 3.0 V and is housed in a 6 pin super minimold package. The IC is manufactured using NEC's 20 GHz fT NESAT™ III silicon bipolar process. This process uses silicon nitride passivation film and gold electrodes. These materials protect the chip surface from external pollution and prevent corrosion/ migration. Thus, this IC has excellent performance, uniformity and reliability.
