The device is fabricated using ion implantation for improved RF and DC performance, reliability, and uniformity. Its low noise figure, high gain, small size and weight make it an ideal low noise amplifier transistor in the 13 GHz frequency range. The NE34018 is suitable for GPS, PCS, WLAN, MMDS, and other commercial applications. Associated Gain, GA (dB) 20 GA 0 0.5 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 910 Frequency, f (GHz) NEC's stringent quality assurance and test procedures ensure the highest reliability and performance. 18 Package SOT-343 Style ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS (TA = 25C) PART NUMBER PACKAGE OUTLINE SYMBOL NF GA P1dB G1dB O/P IP3 IDSS PARAMETERS AND CONDITIONS Noise Figure at VDS = 2 V, ID = 5 mA, f = 2 GHz Associated Gain at VDS = 2 V, ID = 5 mA, f = 2 GHz Output Power at 1 dB Gain Compression Point, f = 2 GHz VDS = 2 V, IDS = 10 mA VDS = 3 V, IDS = 30 mA NE34018 18 UNITS MIN TYP MAX 0.6 1.0 14.0 16.0 dB dB dBm dBm 12 16.5 dB dB 17.0 17.5 Output IP3 at f = 2 GHz, f = 1 MHz VDS = 2 V, IDS = 10 mA VDS = 2 V, IDS = 30 mA dBm dBm 23 32 Saturated Drain Current at VDS = 2 V, VGS = 0 V Gain at P1dB, f = 2 GHz VDS = 2 V, IDS = 10 mA VDS = 3 V, IDS = 30 mA mA 30 80 120 VP Pinch Off Voltage at VDS = 2 V, ID = 100 A V -2.0 -0.8 -0.2 gm Transconductance at VDS = 2 V, ID = 5 mA mS 30 Gate to Source Leakage Current at VGS = -3 V A 0.5 10 C/W 833 IGSO RTH(CH-A) Thermal Resistance (Channel to Ambient) Note: 1. Typical values of noise figures and associated gain are those obtained when 50% of the devices from a large number of lots were individually measured in a circuit with the input individually tuned to obtain the minimum value. Maximum values are criteria established on the production line as a "go-no-go" screening test with the fixture tuned for the "generic" type but not for each specimen.

CEL Pb-free products have the same base part number with a suffix added. The suffix -A indicates that the device is Pb-free. The -AZ suffix is used to designate devices containing Pb which are exempted from the requirement of RoHS directive (*). In all cases the devices have Pb-free terminals. All devices with these suffixes meet the requirements of the RoHS directive. This status is based on CEL's understanding of the EU Directives and knowledge of the materials that go into its products as of the date of disclosure of this information. Restricted Substance per RoHS Concentration Limit per RoHS (values are not yet fixed) Concentration contained in CEL devices -A Not Detected Lead (Pb) < 1000 PPM Mercury < 1000 PPM Not Detected Cadmium < 100 PPM Not Detected Hexavalent Chromium < 1000 PPM Not Detected PBB < 1000 PPM Not Detected PBDE < 1000 PPM Not Detected -AZ (*) If you should have any additional questions regarding our devices and compliance to environmental standards, please do not hesitate to contact your local representative.
