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
Internal input and output prematching ensures a good stability and allows an easier design of wideband circuits.

APPLICATIONS

Intended for use in common emitter, class AB amplifiers in CW conditions for professional applications between
1.2 and 1.4 GHz.
