Pin Configuration
The 1043 Series is a thin-film
bipolar RF amplifier using lossless
feedback for low noise, high
dynamic range and efficient
operation; and active bias circuits
to assure good temperature
compensation and increased
immunity to bias voltage variations. The 1043 Series amplifiers
are available in three packages:
the surface mount PlanarPak
PP-38 (.375 in. x .375 in.) case, the
TO-8 hermetic case and the
connectorized TC-1A case.
