Product Description
Sirenza Microdevices’ SGA-9189 is a high performance transistor designed
for operation to 3 GHz. With optimal matching at 2 GHz, OIP3=39 dBm and
P1dB=25.5 dBm. This RF device is based on a Silicon Germanium
Heterostructure Bipolar Transistor (SiGe HBT) process. The SGA-9189 is
cost-effective for applications requiring high linearity even at moderate
biasing levels. It is well suited for operation at both 5V and 3V.
The matte tin finish on Sirenza’s lead-free package utilizes a post annealing
process to mitigate tin whisker formation and is RoHS compliant per EU Directive
2002/95. This package is also manufactured with green molding compounds
that contain no antimony trioxide nor halogenated fire retardants.
