NEC's MC-7834-KC is a GaAs Multi-Chip Module designed
for use as input stages in CATV applications up to 870 MH
z
.
Because this unit is a GaAs device, it has low distortion, low
noise figure, and low return loss across the entire frequency
band. The MC-7834-KC is similar to NEC's standard push-pull
devices, but with the higher current allows better distortion
performance, especially X-Mod.
Like the previous generation of products, these devices sur-
vive such hazards as surge and ESD as well as their silicon
competitors, but deliver superior performance with low DC
current required.
All devices are assembled and tested using fully automated
equipment to maximize consistency in part to part perfor-
mance, and reliability is assured by NEC's stringent quality
and process control procedures. These parts come in industry
compatible hybrid packages.
