Product specification
NPN 5 GHz wideband transistor
FEATURES
•
High power gain
•
Gold metallization ensures
excellent reliability
•
SOT416 (SC-75) package.
APPLICATIONS
Designed for use in RF amplifiers,
mixers and oscillators with signal
frequencies up to 1 GHz.
DESCRIPTION
Silicon NPN transistor encapsulated
in a plastic SOT416 (SC-75) package.
