NPN microwave power transistor LEE1015T
FEATURES
• Diffused emitter ballasting resistors providing excellent
current sharing and withstanding a high VSWR
• Interdigitated structure provides high emitter efficiency
• Gold metallization realizes very good stability of the
characteristics and excellent lifetime
• Multicell geometry gives good balance of dissipated
power and low thermal resistance.
APPLICATIONS
Intended for use in common emitter, class A power
amplifiers for applications that require a high level of
linearity.
DESCRIPTION

Note
1. The stated intermodulation distortion level is referred to the total output power of 18.25 dBm, which corresponds to
the sum of the power carried by each of the two equal amplitude tones at f
= 859 MHz and f2= 861 MHz.
