DESCRIPTION
The U440/441 are matched pairs of JFETs mounted in a single
TO-71 package. This two-chip design reduces parasitics and
gives better performance at very high frequencies while
ensuring extremely tight matching. These devices are an
excellent choice for use as wideband differential amplifiers in
demanding test and measurement applications.
The hermetically-sealed TO-71 package is available with full
military screening per MIL-S-19500 (see Military Information).
For similar products in SO-8 packaging see the
SST440/SST441 data sheet. For low-noise options, see the
SST/U401 series data sheet. For low-leakage alternatives,
see the U421/423 data sheet.
