Ruggedness in class-AB operation
The BFG10W/X is capable of withstanding a load mismatch corresponding to VSWR = 6 : 1 through all phases under
pulsed conditions up to a supply voltage of 8.6 V under the conditions: 900 MHz; 650 mW; tp = 4.6 ms; duty cycle of 1 : 8
and up to a supply voltage of 5.5 V under the conditions: 1.9 GHz; 200 mW; tp = 10 ms; duty cycle of 1 : 2.

Data Sheet Status
Objective specification
This data sheet contains target or goal specifications for product development.
Preliminary specification
This data sheet contains preliminary data; supplementary data may be published later.
Product specification
This data sheet contains final product specifications.
Limiting values
Limiting values given are in accordance with the Absolute Maximum Rating System (IEC 134). Stress above one or
more of the limiting values may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and operation
of the device at these or at any other conditions above those given in the Characteristics sections of the specification
