5 V, SUPER MINIMOLD SILICON MMIC
VHF-UHF WIDEBAND AMPLIFIER
BIPOLAR ANALOG INTEGRATED CIRCUITS
DESCRIPTION
The
µ
PC2791TB and
µ
PC2792TB are silicon monolithic integrated circuits designed as 2nd IF buffer amplifier for
DBS tuners. These ICs are packaged in super minimold package which is smaller than conventional minimold. So,
in the case of reducing your system size,
µ
PC2791TB and
µ
PC2792TB are suitable. Among the 6-pin mini/super-
minimold amplifiers,
µ
PC2791TB and
µ
PC2792TB have unique pin locations taken over from conventional 4-pin
minimold
µ
PC1675G,
µ
PC1676G and
µ
PC1688G.
These ICs are manufactured using NEC’s 10GHz f
T
NESAT™ II AL silicon bipolar process. This process uses
silicon nitride passivation film.
The material can protect chip surface from external pollution and prevent
corrosion/migration. Thus, these IC have excellent performance, uniformity and reliability.

Function and Applications
Internal Equivalent Circuit
Ground pin. This pin should be
connected to system ground with
minimum inductance. Ground pattern
on the board should be formed as wide
as possible.
All the ground pins must be connected
together with wide ground pattern to
decrease impedance difference.
Signal output pin. A internal matching
circuit, configured with resistors, enables
50
Ω
connection over a wide band.
This pin must be coupled to next stage
with capacitor for DC cut.
Power supply pin. This pin should be
externally equipped with bypass
capacity to minimize ground
impedance.
Signal input pin. A internal matching
circuit, configured with resistors, enables
50
Ω
connection over a wide band.
A multi-feedback circuit is designed to
cancel the deviations of h
FE
and
resistance.
This pin must be coupled to front stage
with capacitor for DC cut.

CAPACITORS FOR THE V
CC
, INPUT AND OUTPUT PINS
1 000 pF capacitors are recommendable as bypass capacitor for V
CC
pin and coupling capacitors for input/output
pins.
Bypass capacitor for V
CC
pin is intended to minimize V
CC
pin’s ground impedance. Therefore, stable bias can be
supplied against V
CC
fluctuation.
Coupling capacitors for input/output pins are intended to minimize RF serial impedance and cut DC.
To get flat gain from 100 MHz up, 1 000 pF capacitors are assembled on the test circuit. [Actually, 1 000 pF
capacitors give flat gain at least 10 MHz. In the case of under 10 MHz operation, increase the value of coupling
capacitor such as 2 200 pF. Because the coupling capacitors are determined by the equation of C = 1/(2
π
fZs).]
