Advanced Information
SUF-6000
Product Description
Sirenza Microdevices’ SUF-6000 is a high gain broadband 2-stage
amplifier covering 2-16 GHz for wideband communication and general
purpose applications. This pHEMT FET-based amplifier uses a patented
self-bias Darlington topology featuring a gain and temperature
compensating active bias network that operates from a single 5V supply.
Its compact size make it ideal for high-density multi-chip module
applications.
