RF Power LDMOS Transistors
High Ruggedness N--Channel
Enhancement--Mode Lateral MOSFETs
These high ruggedness devices are designed for use in high VSWR industrial
(including laser and plasma exciters), broadcast (analog and digital), aerospace
and radio/land mobile applications. They are unmatched input and output
designs allowing wide frequency range utilization, between 1.8 and 600 MHz.
