The MBC13917 is a cost-effective, high isolation
amplifier fabricated with an advanced RF BiCMOS
process using the SiGe:C module. This is the leadless
package version of the MBC13916 device.
The MBC13917 is designed for a wide range of general
purpose RF applications and has excellent high
frequency gain and noise figure. On-chip bias circuitry
sets the bias point while matching is accomplished
off-chip, affording the maximum in application
flexibility.
