DESCRIPTION
The μPC8178TK 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 wide band matched IC. μPC8178TK adopts 6-pin lead-less minimold package using same chip as the conventional μPC8178TB in 6-pin super minimold.
TK suffix IC which is smaller package than TB suffix IC contributes to reduce mounting space by 50 %. This IC is manufactured using our 30 GHz fmax UHS0 (Ultra High Speed Process) silicon bipolar process.
