RFMD Green, RoHS Compliant, Pb-Free (Z Part Number)
Package: SOT-89
Product Description
RFMD’s SGA-9289 is a high performance transistor designed for operation to
3GHz. With optimal matching at 2GHz, OIP
3
=42.5dBm, and P
1dB
=27.5dBm. This
RF device is based on a Silicon Germanium Heterostructure Bipolar Transistor
(SiGe HBT) process. The SGA-9289 is cost-effective for applications requiring high
linearity even at moderate biasing levels. It is well suited for operation at both 5V
and 3V. The matte tin finish on the lead-free package utilizes a post annealing pro-
cess to mitigate tin whisker formation and is RoHS compliant per EU Directive
2002/95. This package is also manufactured with green molding compounds that
contain no antimony trioxide nor halogenated fire retardants.
