Product Description
Features
RFMD’s SBB1089Z is a high performance InGaP HBT MMIC amplifier utilizing a Darlington configuration with an active bias network. The active
bias network provides stable current over temperature and process Beta
variations. Designed to run directly from a 5 V supply, the SBB1089Z does
not require a dropping resistor as compared to typical Darlington amplifiers. The SBB1089Z product is designed for high linearity 5 V gain block
applications that require small size and minimal external components. It is
internally matched to 50 .

Description
RF input pin. This pin requires the use of an external DC blocking capacitor chosen for the frequency of operation.
Connection to ground. Use via holes for best performance to reduce lead inductance as close to ground leads as possible.
RF output and bias pin. DC voltage is present on tis pin, therefore a DC blocking capacitor is necessary for proper operation.
