The AM81214-006 device is a high power Class
C transistor specifically designed for L-Band Radar pulsed driver applications.
This device is capable of operation over a wide
range of pulse widths, duty cycles, and temperatures and is capable of withstanding 5:1 output
VSWR at rated RF conditions. Low RF thermal
resistance an d compute rized automatic wire
bonding techniques ensure high reliability and
product consistency.
AM81214-006 is supplied in the grounded IMPAC Hermetic Metal/Ceramic package with internal input/output matching structures.
