Product Description
Sirenza Microdevices’ SNA-100S is a GaAs monolithic
broadband amplifier (MMIC) in die form. This amplifier
provides 12.2dB of gain at 1950 MHz and 10.3dB at
10,000 MHz.
These unconditionally stable amplifiers are designed for use
as general purpose 50 ohm gain blocks. Its small size
(0.350mm x 0.345mm) and gold metallization make it an
ideal choice for use in hybrid circuits. The SNA-100S 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-100S is supplied in gel paks of 100 devices.
Also available in packaged form (SNA-176 & SNA-186)
