PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
1
The design of the MAT02 series of NPN dual monolithic tran-
sistors is optimized for very low noise, low drift, and low r
BE
.
Precision Monolithics’ exclusive Silicon Nitride “Triple-
Passivation” process stabilizes the critical device parameters
over wide ranges of temperature and elapsed time. Also, the high
current gain (h
FE
) of the MAT02 is maintained over a wide
range of collector current. Exceptional characteristics of the
MAT02 include offset voltage of 50
µV
max (A/E grades) and
150
µV
max F grade. Device performance is specified over the
full military temperature range as well as at 25°C.
Input protection diodes are provided across the emitter-base
junctions to prevent degradation of the device characteristics
due to reverse-biased emitter current. The substrate is clamped
to the most negative emitter by the parasitic isolation junction
created by the protection diodes. This results in complete isola-
tion between the transistors.
The MAT02 should be used in any application where low noise
is a priority. The MAT02 can be used as an input stage to make
an amplifier with noise voltage of less than 1.0 nV/√Hz at 100 Hz.
Other applications, such as log/antilog circuits, may use the ex-
cellent logging conformity of the MAT02. Typical bulk resis-
tance is only 0.3
Ω
to 0.4
Ω.
The MAT02 electrical charac-
teristics approach those of an ideal transistor when operated over
a collector current range of 1
µA
to 10 mA. For applications re-
quiring multiple devices see MAT04 Quad Matched Transistor
data sheet.

NOTES
1
Absolute maximum ratings apply to both DICE and packaged devices.
2
Rating applies to applications using heat sinking to control case temperature.
Derate linearly at 16.4 mW/°C for case temperature above 40°C.
3
Rating applies to applications not using a heat sinking; devices in free air only.
Derate linearly at 6.3 mW/°C for ambient temperature above 70°C.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the MAT02 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
