GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MAT03 dual monolithic PNP transistor offers excellent
parametric matching and high frequency performance. Low
noise characteristics (1 nV/
√
Hz
max @ 1 kHz), high bandwidth
(190 MHz typical), and low offset voltage (100
µV
max), makes
the MAT03 an excellent choice for demanding preamplifier appli-
cations. Tight current gain matching (3% max mismatch) and
high current gain (100 min), over a wide range of collector cur-
rent, makes the MAT03 an excellent choice for current mirrors.
A low value of bulk resistance (typically 0.3
Ω)
also makes the
MAT03 an ideal component for applications requiring accurate
logarithmic conformance.
Each transistor is individually tested to data sheet specifications.
Device performance is guaranteed at 25°C and over the extended
industrial and military temperature ranges. To ensure the long-
term stability of the matching parameters, internal protection
diodes across the base-emitter junction clamp any reverse base-
emitter junction potential. This prevents a base-emitter breakdown
condition that can result in degradation of gain and matching
performance due to excessive breakdown current.

NOTES
1
Absolute maximum ratings apply to both DICE and packaged devices.
2
Rating applies to TO-78 not using a heat sink and LCC; devices in free air only. For
TO-78, derate linearly at 6.3 mW/°C above 70°C ambient temperature; for LCC,
derate at 7.8 mW/°C.
CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the MAT03 features propriety ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur
on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions
are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
