PRELIMINARY DATA SHEET
N-CHANNEL GaAs MES FET
NE650R479A
0.4 W L, S-BAND POWER GaAs MES FET
DESCRIPTION
The NE650R479A is a 0.4 W GaAs MES FET designed for middle power transmitter applications for mobile
communication handset and base station systems. It is capable of delivering 0.4 watt of output power (CW) with high
linear gain, high efficiency, excellent distortion and is suitable as a driver amplifier for our NE6500379A etc.
Reliability and performance uniformity are assured by NEC’s stringent quality and control procedures.
FEATURES
