VHF power transistor BLW60C
DESCRIPTION
N-P-N silicon planar epitaxial
transistor intended for use in class-A,
B and C operated mobile, industrial
and military transmitters with a
Matched h
request.
It has a 3/8" capstan envelope with a
ceramic cap. All leads are isolated
from the stud.
groups are available on
FE
nominal supply voltage of 12,5 V. The
transistor is resistance stabilized and
is guaranteed to withstand severe
load mismatch conditions with a
supply over-voltage to 16,5 V.
