S175 - 50
175 Watts, 50 Volts, Class AB
Milcom 1.5 - 30
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The S175-50 is a 50 Volt, COMMN EMITTER device designed for Class A,
AB or C operation in the HF/VHF frequency bands. Its high collector voltage
simplifies the design of wideband, SSB linear amplifiers. The transistor chip is
built using Gold Topside Metal, diffused emitter ballast resistors and silicon
nitride passivation, providing the user with the Highest MTTF available.

TRANSFORMER DETAILS
T1: 8 beads of Indiana General F625-9, H
material on two brass tubes. The primary is
four turns of #20 vinyl clad wire wound
through the brass tubes
T2: #20 twisted pair, approximately 2 crests
per centimeter, wound on Indiana General
F624-19, H material
T3: 10 beads of Indiana General F627-8,
H materail mounted on two brass tubes. The
secondary consist of 3 #20 vinyl clad wires
in parallel. The three wires should be wound
to produce a 2:1 turns ratio
