Preliminary
SUF-1000
Product Description
Sirenza Microdevices’ SUF-1000 is a monolithically matched high IP3
broadband pHEMT MMIC amplifier. The self-biased direct-coupled
topology provides exceptional cascadable performance from DC-20
GHz. Its efficient operation from a single 5V supply and its compact
size (0.88 x 0.75 mm
2
) make it ideal for high-density multi-chip module
applications. It is well-suited for wideband instrumentation and direct-
conversion systems.
