NPN microwave power transistor LAE4001R
FEATURES
• Self-aligned process entirely ion implanted and gold
sandwich metallization
• Optimum temperature profile
• Excellent performance and reliability.
APPLICATIONS
Common emitter class A linear power amplifiers up
to 4 GHz.
DESCRIPTION
NPN silicon planar epitaxial microwave power transistor in
a SOT100 metal ceramic package with emitter connected
