Philips Semiconductors Product specification
UHF power transistor BLV99/SL
FEATURES
• Emitter-ballasting resistors for an
optimum temperature profile
• Gold metallization ensures
excellent reliability.
DESCRIPTION
NPN silicon planar epitaxial transistor
encapsulated in a 4-lead SOT172D
envelope with a ceramic cap. It is
designed primarily for use as a driver
stage in base stations in the 900 MHz
communications band. All leads are
isolated from the mounting base.
PINNING - SOT172D
