The THAT 300, 320 and 340 are large
geometry, 4-transistor, monolithic NPN and/or PNP
arrays. They exhibit both high speed and low noise,
with excellent parameter matching between transis-
tors of the same gender. Typical base-spreading
resistance is 25 Ω for the PNP devices (30 Ω for the
low-gain NPNs), so their resulting voltage noise is
under 1 nV/√Hz. This makes the 300 series ideally
suited for low-noise amplifier input stages, log ampli-
fiers, and many other applications. The four-NPN
transistor array is available in versions selected for
hfe with minimums of 150 (300A) or 300 (300B).
Fabricated in a dielectrically isolated, comple-
mentary bipolar process, each transistor is electri-
cally insulated from the others by a layer of
insulating oxide (not the reverse-biased PN junctions
used in conventional arrays). As a result, they exhibit
inter-device crosstalk and DC isolation similar to
that of discrete transistors. The resulting low
collector-to-substrate capacitance produces a typical
NPN fT of 350 MHz (325 MHz for the PNPs).
Substrate biasing is not required for normal opera-
tion, though the substrate should be ac-grounded to
optimize speed and minimize crosstalk.
An eight-transistor bare-die array with similar
performance characteristics (the THAT 380G) is also
available from THAT Corporation. Please contact us
directly or through your local distributor for more
information. Military-grade temperature range
packages are available from TT Semiconductor (see
www.ttsemiconductor.com for more information).

The THAT 300, 320 and 340 are available in 14-pin
PDIP and 14-pin surface mount (SOIC) packages.
Package dimensions are shown below.
The 300-series packages are entirely lead-free. The
lead-frames are copper, plated with successive layers of
nickel, palladium, and gold. This approach makes it
possible to solder these devices using lead-free and lead-
bearing solders.
Neither the lead-frames nor the plastic mold
compounds used in the 300-series contains any hazard-
ous substances as specified in the European Union's
Directive on the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazard-
ous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment
2002/95/EG of January 27, 2003. The surface-mount
package is suitable for use in a 100% tin solder process.

no responsibility for its use nor for any infringements of third-party intellectual property which may result from its use.
LIFE SUPPORT POLICY
THAT Corporation ICs are not designed for use in life support equipment where a malfunction of our ICs might
reasonably result in injury or death. Customers who use or sell our ICs for such life suport application do so at their
own risk, and shall hold THAT Corporation harmless from any and all claims, damages, suits, or expenses resulting

CAUTION: THIS IS AN ESD (ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE) SENSITIVE DEVICE
Electrostatic charges in the range of several kV can accumulate on the human body as well as test and assembly equip-
ment. This device can be damaged by the currents generated by electrostatic discharge from bodies and equipment.
Moreover, the transistors in this device are unprotected in order to maximize performance and flexibility. Accordingly,
they are more sensitive to ESD damage than many other ICs which include protection devices at their inputs. Note that
all of the pins are susceptible.
Use ESD-preventative measures when storing and handling this device. Unused devices should be stored in conductive
packaging. Packaging should be discharged to the destination socket before the devices are removed from their
packages. ESD damage can occur to these devices even after they are installed in a board-level assembly. Circuits
should include specific and appropriate ESD protection.
