2. Refer to AN1955,
Thermal Measurement Methodology of RF Power Amplifiers.
Go to http://www.freescale.com/rf.
Select Documentation/Application Notes -- AN1955.
ATTENTION: The MRF6V4300N and MRF6V4300NB are high power devices and special considerations
must be followed in board design and mounting. Incorrect mounting can lead to internal temperatures which
exceed the maximum allowable operating junction temperature. Refer to Freescale Application Note AN3263
(for bolt down mounting) or AN1907 (for solder reflow mounting)
PRIOR TO STARTING SYSTEM DESIGN
to
ensure proper mounting of these devices.
