Product Brief RF transistors 7th generation Ease of use for complementary wireless connectivity Wireless fidelity or “Wi-Fi” plays a major role in today’s communications by enabling constant connection and broadband Internet access for users with laptops or devices equipped with wireless network interface while roaming within the range of fixed Access Points (AP) or a public hotspot. Infineon 7th generation RF transistors family is an ease of use series of discrete Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (HBT) suitable as single and dual-band Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) solution for vast range of Wi-Fi connectivity applications. This series of devices combines 44 GHz f T silicon-germanium:carbide (SiGe:C) B9HFM process with advanced device geometry engineering conceived to reduce the parasitic capacitance to enhance high-frequency characteristics. RF transistors 7th generation allow engineers to increase the RF link budget and Signalto-Noise Ratio (SNR) of their AP routers and mobile stations when wider coverage areas are needed and especially when a higher order modulation scheme such as 256 Quad rature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) is used high throughput where more stringent SNR for both the AP and the client is required.
