Download datasheetVHF push-pull power MOS transistor
Dual push-pull silicon N-channel enhancement mode vertical D-MOS transistor, designed for broadcast transmitter applications in the VHF frequency range. The transistor is encapsulated in a 4-lead SOT262A1 balanced flange package, with two ceramic caps. The mounting flange provides the common source connection for the transistors.
Features and benefits
- High power gain
- Easy power control
- Good thermal stability
- Gold metallization ensures excellent reliability
Applications
- Broadcast transmitter applications in the VHF frequency range
