The RF Line
NPN SILICON RF POWER TRANSISTORS
. . . designed for 12.5 Volt large-signal power amplifier applications
in communications equipment operating at 220 MHz.
• Specified 1 2.5 Volt, 220 MHz Characteristics -
Output Power = 1.0 W - MRF207
10W-MRF208
25 W - MRF209
Minimum Gain = 8.2 dB — MRF207
10dB-MRF208
4.4dB-MRF209
• Balanced-Emitter Construction to provide the designer with the de-
vice technology that assures ruggedness and resists transistor
damage caused by load mismatch.
