SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA
The RF Line
. . . designed for use in high–gain, low–noise, ultra–linear, tuned and wideband
amplifiers. Ideal for use in CATV, MATV, and instrumentation applications.
• Low Noise Figure —
NF = 3.0 dB (Typ) @ f = 500 MHz, IC = 90 mA
NF = 3.0 dB @ 0.5 GHz
HIGH–FREQUENCY
TRANSISTOR
NPN SILICON
• High Power Gain —
GU(max) = 16.5 dB (Typ) @ f = 500 MHz
• Ion Implanted
• All Gold Metal System
• High fT — 5.5 GHz
• Low Intermodulation Distortion:
TB3 = – 70 dB
DIN = 125 dB µV
• Nichrome Emitter Ballast Resistors
