Low Noise, Cascadable
Silicon Bipolar MMIC Amplifier
Technical Data
INA-03184
feedback amplifier housed in a
Features
84 Plastic Package
low cost surface mount plastic
package. It is designed for narrow
or wide bandwidth commercial
and industrial applications that
require high gain and low noise IF
or RF amplification with minimum
power consumption.
• Cascadable 50 Ω Gain Block
• Low Noise Figure:
2.6 dB Typical at 1.5 GHz
• High Gain:
25 dB Typical at 1.5 GHz
• 3 dB Bandwidth:

• Low Power Dissipation:
bipolar process which uses nitride
self-alignment, submicrometer
lithography, trench isolation, ion
implantation, gold metallization
and polyimide intermetal dielec-
tric and scratch protection to
achieve excellent performance,
uniformity and reliability.

a 100–120 Ω bias resistor directly to
ground. See AN-S012: Low Noise
