BIPOLAR ANALOG INTEGRATED CIRCUIT PC8233TK SiGe:C LOW NOISE AMPLIFIER FOR GPS/MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS DESCRIPTION The PC8233TK is a silicon germanium carbon (SiGe:C) monolithic integrated circuit designed as low noise amplifier for GPS and mobile communications. This device exhibits low noise figure and high power gain characteristics. This device is enabled in the frequency range from 1.5 to 2.4 GHz by modifying the external matching circuit. This device is suitable for the reduction in power consumption of the mobile communication system because it operates by low voltage and low current. The package is 6-pin lead-less minimold, suitable for surface mount. This IC is manufactured using our UHS4 (Ultra High Speed Process) SiGe:C bipolar process. FEATURES Supply voltage : VCC = 1.6 to 3.3 V (2.7 V TYP.) Low noise : NF = 0.90 dB TYP. VCC = 2.7 V, fin = 1 575 MHz NF = 0.90 dB TYP. VCC = 1.8 V, fin = 1 575 MHz High gain : GP = 20 dB TYP.
