Philips Semiconductors Product specification
HF/VHF power transistor BLW78
DESCRIPTION
N-P-N silicon planar epitaxial
transistor intended for use in class-A,
It has a
ceramic cap. All leads are isolated
from the flange.
1
⁄2" flange envelope with a
AB or B operated mobile, industrial
and military transmitters in the h.f.
and v.h.f. bands. It is resistance
stabilized and is guaranteed to
withstand severe load mismatch
conditions.

Note
1. Stated intermodulation distortion figures are referred to the according level of either of the equal amplified tones.
Relative to the according peak envelope powers these figures should be increased by 6 dB.
