DESCRIPTION
The UPC2762T and UPC2763T are Silicon Monolithic inte-
grated circuits which are manufactured using the NESAT III
process. The NESAT III process produces transistors with f
T
approaching 20 GHz. These amplifiers were designed for 900
MHz and 1.9 GHz receivers in cellular, cordless telephone
and PCN applications. Operating on a 3 volt supply these ICs
are ideally suited for hand-held, portable designs.
NEC's stringent quality assurance and test procedures en-
sure the highest reliability and performance.
