Product Description
The NBB-312 cascadable broadband InGaP/GaAs MMIC amplifier is a low-
cost, high-performance solution for general purpose RF and microwave
amplification needs. This 50惟 gain block is based on a reliable HBT pro-
prietary MMIC design, providing unsurpassed performance for small-sig-
nal applications. Designed with an external bias resistor, the NBB-312
provides flexibility and stability. The NBB-310 is packaged in a low-cost,
surface-mount ceramic package, providing ease of assembly for high-vol-
ume tape-and-reel requirements. It is available in either 1,000 or 3,000
piece-per-reel quantities. Connectorized evaluation board designs opti-
mized for high frequency are also available for characterization purposes.
