Description:
The MwT-25 is GaAs MESFET device device whose nominal 0.5 micron gate length and 14000 micron gate width make it ideally
suited for applications requiring high power up to 5-6 watts. The chip is produced using MwT's reliable metal systems and all
devices from each wafer are screened to insure reliability. All chips are passivated using MwT's patented "Diamond-Like Carbon"
process for increased durability.
