Sirenza Microdevices SGA-2163 is a high performance SiGe
HBT MMIC Amplifier. A Darlington configuration featuring 1
micron emitters provides high F
T
and excellent thermal
perfomance. The heterojunction increases breakdown voltage
and minimizes leakage current between junctions. Cancellation
of emitter junction non-linearities results in higher suppression
of intermodulation products. At 850 Mhz and 20mA , the SGA-
2163 typically provides +21 dBm output IP3, 10.5 dB of gain,
and +7.1 dBm of 1dB compressed power using a single positive
voltage supply. Only 2 DC-blocking capacitors, a bias resistor
and an optional RF choke are required for operation.
