Product specification
NPN microwave power transistor
FEATURES
•
Interdigitated structure provides high emitter efficiency
•
Diffused emitter ballasting resistor providing excellent
current sharing and withstanding a high VSWR
•
Gold metallization realizes very stable characteristics
and excellent lifetime
•
Multicell geometry gives good balance of dissipated
power and low thermal resistance
•
Internal input matching ensures good stability and
allows an easier design of wideband circuits.
APPLICATIONS
•
Common base class-C wideband pulsed power
amplifiers for L-band radar applications in the
1.2 to 1.4 GHz band.
