The RF MOSFET Line
RF Power Field-Effect Transistor
N-Channel Enhancement-Mode Lateral MOSFET
Designed for broadband commercial and industrial applications with frequen-
cies from 470 - 860 MHz. The high gain and broadband performance of this
device make it ideal for large-signal, common source amplifier applications in 28
volt transmitter equipment.
