RoHS Compliance, 135-175MHz 30W 12.5V 2 Stage Amp. For MOBILE RADIO
DESCRIPTION
The RA30H1317M1 is a 30-watt RF MOSFET Amplifier Module for
12.5-volt mobile radios that operate in the 135- to 175-MHz range.
The battery can be connected directly to the drain of the
enhancement-mode MOSFET transistors.
The output power and drain current increase as the gate voltage
increases. With a gate voltage around 3.5V (minimum), output
power and drain current increases substantially.
The nominal output power becomes available at 4V (typical) and 5V
(maximum). At VGG=5V, the typical gate current is 1 mA.
This module is designed for non-linear FM modulation.
• Low-Power Control Current IGG=1mA (typ) at VGG=5V
• Module Size: 67 x 19.4 x 9.9 mm

RECOMMENDATIONS and APPLICATION INFORMATION:
Construction:
This module consists of a glass-epoxy substrate soldered onto a copper flange. For mechanical protection, a metal cap is
attached (which makes the improvement of RF radiation easy).The MOSFET transistor chips are die bonded onto
metal, wire bonded to the substrate, and coated with resin. Lines on the substrate (eventually inductors), chip capacitors,
and resistors form the bias and matching circuits. Wire leads soldered onto the glass-epoxy substrate provide the DC and
RF connection.
Following conditions must be avoided:
a) Bending forces on the glass-epoxy substrate (for example, by driving screws or from fast thermal changes)
b) Mechanical stress on the wire leads (for example, by first soldering then driving screws or by thermal expansion)
c) Defluxing solvents reacting with the resin coating on the MOSFET chips (for example, Trichloroethylene)
d) ESD, surge, overvoltage in combination with load VSWR, and oscillation
ESD:
This MOSFET module is sensitive to ESD voltages down to 1000V.Appropriate ESD precautions are required.
Mounting:
A thermal compound between module and heat sink is recommended for low thermal contact resistance.
The module must first be screwed to the heat sink, then the leads can be soldered to the printed circuit board.
M3 screws are recommended with a tightening torque of 4.0 to 6.0 kgf-cm.
Soldering and Defluxing:
This module is designed for manual soldering.
The leads must be soldered after the module is screwed onto the heat sink.
The temperature of the lead (terminal) soldering should be lower than 350°C and shorter than 3 second.
Ethyl Alcohol is recommend for removing flux. Trichloroethylene solvents must not be used (they may cause bubbles in
the coating of the transistor chips which can lift off the bond wires).

The 175°C maximum rating for the channel temperature ensures application under derated conditions.
Output Power Control:
By the gate voltage (VGG).
Around VGG=3.5V, the output power and drain current increases substantially.
Around VGG=4V (typical) to VGG=5V (maximum), the nominal output power becomes available.
Oscillation:
To test RF characteristics, this module is put on a fixture with two bias decoupling capacitors each on gate and drain, a
4.700 pF chip capacitor, located close to the module, and a 22 µF (or more) electrolytic capacitor.
When an amplifier circuit around this module shows oscillation, the following may be checked:
a) Do the bias decoupling capacitors have a low inductance pass to the case of the module?
b) Is the load impedance ZL=50?
c) Is the source impedance ZG=50?
