Product Description
RFMD’s SXA-389 amplifier is a high efficiency GaAs Heterojunction Bipo-
lar Transistor (HBT) MMIC housed in low-cost surface-mountable plastic
package. These HBT MMICs are fabricated using molecular beam epitaxial
growth technology which produces reliable and consistent performance
from wafer to wafer and lot to lot. These amplifiers are specially designed
for use as driver devices for infrastructure equipment in the 400MHz
to2500MHz cellular, ISM, WLL, PCS, W-CDMA applications.
