UHF wideband transistor PBR941
FEATURES
• Small size
• Low noise
• Low distortion
• High gain
• Gold metallization ensures excellent reliability.
APPLICATIONS
• Communication and instrumentation systems.
DESCRIPTION
Silicon NPN transistor in a surface mount 3-pin SOT23
package. The transistor is primarily intended for wideband
applications in the GHz-range in the RF front end of analog
and digital cellular telephones, cordless phones, radar
detectors, pagers and satellite TV-tuners.
