Description
The MSA-9970 is a high performance silicon bipolar Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) housed in a hermetic high reliability package. This MMIC is designed with high open loop gain and is intended to be used with external resistive and reactive feedback elements to create a variety of special purpose gain blocks. Applications include very broadband, minimum ripple amplifiers with extended low frequency performance possible through the use of a high valued external feedback blocking capacitor; extremely well matched (- 20 d B return loss) amplifiers; and negative gain slope amplifiers for flattening MMIC cascades.
