Description
M-Pulse's MP4TD0370 is a high performance silicon
bipolar MMIC housed in a hermetic high reliability
package for surface mount usage. The MP4TD0370 is
useful where a general purpose 50
gain block is
required. Typical applications include narrow and wide
band IF and RF amplifiers in industrial and military
applications.
The MP4TD0370 is fabricated using a 10 GHz fT silicon
bipolar technology that features gold metalization and IC
passivation for increased performance and reliability.
