UNICIP 2000

The UNICIP 2000 is a 40 V standard array (uncommitted linear integrated circuit) for custom designed industrial applications, made by IPRS Băneasa [1].

The I.P.R.S. Băneasa Full Line Condensed Catalog (1990) presents the UNICIP 2000 as an MSI linear standard array recommended for custom designed industrial applications, processed in a 40 V supply technology; it has over 170 electronic components: 104 resistors with over 350 kΩ of total value, 61 transistors (including 4 NPN 300 mA power drivers), 6 V zener diodes etc. [1]. As with the UNICIP 1000, the customer designs the interconnection mask on a sheet enlarged 250 times; the basic component set of the UNICIP 2000 is packaged in 3 ICs, βU2001, βU2002 and βU2003, meant for model developing [1].

The component list (printed with the heading „UNICIP 1000 component list”): 38 NPN transistors of 10 mA, 4 NPN transistors of 300 mA, 12 two-collector and 1 three-collector lateral PNP transistors, 6 vertical PNP transistors, 1 J-FET current generator, 2 zener diodes (printed „7 Zener diodes … 2 pcs.”), base-diffusion resistors (16 of 0.5 kΩ, 16 of 1 kΩ, 18 of 2 kΩ, 28 of 4 kΩ and 22 of 8 kΩ), 4 pinch resistors of 35 kΩ, 2 capacitors of 30 pF and 16 pads for pin connection [1]. The catalog gives a supply voltage of at most 40 V, a typical collector resistance of the NPN power transistors (IC = 200 mA) of 5 Ω, typical current gains of 100 for the NPN transistors (IC = 2 mA) and 10 for the lateral PNP ones (IC = 0.2 mA), a base-diffusion resistor tolerance of at most 25 %, a pinch resistor tolerance of −50…+100 %, a zener voltage of 5.7…6.3 V, a chip temperature of at most 125 °C and a power dissipation of 0.3…1.3 W depending on the package type and the external heatsink, the operating temperature depending on the customer project [1]. The design kit circuits (MP-117 packages) are in the Gallery [1].
