BeO disk package for good
thermal characteristics. This
MMIC is designed for use as a
general purpose 50 W gain block.
Typical applications include
narrow and broad band IF and RF
amplifiers in industrial and
military applications.
The MSA-series is fabricated using
HP’s 10 GHz fT, 25ÊGHz f MAX,
silicon bipolar MMIC process
which uses nitride self-alignment,
ion implantation, and gold metallization
to achieve excellent
performance, uniformity and
reliability. The use of an external
bias resistor for temperature and
current stability also allows bias
