SBA-4086(Z) SBA-4086(Z) DCto5GHz, CASCADABLE InGaP/GaAs HBT MMIC AMPLIFIER RoHS Compliant and Pb-Free Product (Z Part Number) Package: SOT-86 Product Description Features RFMD's SBA-4086 is a high performance InGaP/GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor MMIC Amplifier. A Darlington configuration designed with InGaP process technology provides broadband performance up to 5GHz with excellent thermal performance. The heterojunction increases breakdown voltage and minimizes leakage current between junctions. Cancellation of emitter junction non-linearities results in higher suppression of intermodulation products. Only a single positive supply voltage, DCblocking capacitors, a bias resistor, and an optional RF choke are required Optimum Technology for operation.
