200 mil BeO PackageDescription
The AT-64020 is a high performance NPN silicon bipolar
transistor housed in a hermetic
BeO disk package for good
thermal characteristics. This
device is designed for use in
medium power, wide band
amplifier and oscillator applications operating over VHF, UHF
and microwave frequencies.
Excellent device uniformity,
performance and reliability are
produced by the use of ionimplantation, self-alignment
techniques, and gold metallization
in the fabrication of these devices.
The use of ion-implanted ballast
resistors ensures uniform current
distribution through the multiple
emitter fingers.
