DESCRIPTION
The AM81214-015 device is a high power Class C
transistor specifically designed for L-Band Radar
pulsedoutput and driverapplications.
Thisdeviceiscapable ofoperation overa widerange
of pulse widths, duty cycles, and temperatures and
is capable of withstanding 5:1 output VSWRatrated
RF conditions. LowRF thermal resistance and computerized automaticwire bondingtechniques ensure
high reliability and product consistency.
AM81214-015 is supplied in the grounded IMPAC
Hermetic Metal/Ceramic package with internal
input/output matching structures.
