Sirenza Microdevices SNA-376 is a GaAs monolithic broad-
band amplifier (MMIC) housed in a low-cost surface mount-
able stripline package. This amplifier provides 22dB of gain
when biased at 35mA.
External DC decoupling capacitors determine low frequency
response. The use of an external resistor allows for bias
flexibility and stability.
These unconditionally stable amplifiers are designed for use
as general purpose 50 ohm gain blocks. Also available in chip
form (SNA-300), its small size (0.33mm x 0.33mm) and gold
metallization make it an ideal choice for use in hybrid circuits.

Description
RF input pin. This pin requires the use
of an external DC blocking capacitor
chosen for the frequency of operation.
Connection to ground. For optimum RF
performance, use via holes as close to
ground leads as possible to reduce lead
