DATA SHEET
N-CHANNEL GaAs MESFET
NEZ1011-2E, NEZ1414-2E
2W X, Ku-BAND POWER GaAs MESFET
DESCRIPTION
The NEZ1011-2E and NEZ1414-2E are power GaAs MESFETs which provide high gain, high efficiency and high
output in X, Ku-band. The internal input and output matching enables guaranteed performance to be achieved with
only a 50 Ω external circuit. To reduce thermal resistance the device has a PHS (Plated Heat Sink) structure. The
device incorporates a WSi (tungsten silicide) gate structure for high reliability.
FEATURES
• High Output Power : P
• High Linear Gain : 8.5 dB typ. (NEZ1011-2E), 7.5 dB typ. (NEZ1414-2E)
• High Efficiency : 30 % typ.
• Input and Output Internally Matched for Optimum performance
