Operation of this device beyond any one of these limits may cause permanent damage. For reliable continuous operation the device voltage and current must not exceed the maximum operating values specified in the table on page one.

Bias conditions should also satisfy the following expression: I_cqV_cc < (T_J - T_L) / RTH' j-l

Note: Icq in this equation is for the stage with the highest current

* With specified application circuit.
** No RF Drive

Description

Sirenza Microdevices' SZM-3166Z is a high linearity class AB Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) amplifier housed in a low-cost surface-mountable plastic Q-FlexN multi-chip module package. This HBT amplifier SZM-3166Z is made with InGaP on GaAs device technology and fabricated with MOCVD for an ideal combination of low cost and high reliability.

SZM-3166Z is specifically designed for 802.16 customer premise equipment (CPE) terminals in the 3.3-3.6 GHz bands. SZM-3166Z can run from a 3V to 5.2V supply. The external output match and bias adjustability allows load line optimization for other applications covering 3.5-3.8GHz. It features an output power detector, on/off power control and high RF overdrive robustness. A 20dB step attenuator feature can be utilized by swtiching the second stage Power up/down control. SZM-3166Z features a RoHS compliant and Green package with matte tin finish, designated by the 'Z' suffix.
