DESCRIPTION

The

µPC8179TB is a silicon monolithic integrated circuit designed as amplifier for mobile communications. This

IC can realize low current consumption with external chip inductor which can not be realized on internal 50

Ω

wideband matched IC. This low current amplifier operates on 3.0 V.

process uses direct silicon nitride passivation film and gold electrodes. These materials can protect the chip surface

from pollution and prevent corrosion/migration. Thus, this IC has excellent performance, uniformity and reliability.
