Description
PTB 20230
45 Watts, 1.8–2.0 GHz
PCN/PCS Power Transistor
The 20230 is a class AB, NPN common emitter RF power transistor
intended for 26 Vdc operation from 1.8 to 2.0 GHz. Rated at 45 watts
minimum output power for PEP applications, it is specifically intended
for operation as a final or driver stage in CDMA or TDMA systems.
Ion implantation, nitride surface passivation and gold metallization
ensure excellent device reliability. 100% lot traceability is standard.
