MITSUBISHI SEMICONDUCTOR GaAs FET
ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS (Ta=25˚C)
MGF1801B
MICROWAVE POWER GaAs FET
DESCRIPTION
The MGF1801B, medium-power GaAs FET with an N-channel
Schottky gate, is designed for use in S to X band amplifiers and
oscillators. The hermetically sealed metalceramic package
assures minimum parasitic losses, and has a configuration suitable
for microstrip circuits.
FEATURES
• High output power at 1dB gain compression
P1dB=23dBm(TYP.) @f=8GHz
• High linear power gain
GLP=9dB(TYP.) @f=8GHz
• High reliability and stability
APPLICATION
S to X band medium-power amplifiers and oscillators.
QUALITY GRADE
• IG
RECOMMENDED BIAS CONDITIONS
• VDS=6V
• ID=100mA
