UHF linear power transistor
DESCRIPTION
N-P-N silicon planar epitaxial
transistor primarily intended for use in
linear u.h.f. amplifiers of TV
transposers and transmitters in band
IV-V, as well as for driver stages in
tube systems.
FEATURES:
• diffused emitter ballasting resistors
for an optimum temperature profile;
• gold sandwich metallization
ensures excellent reliability.
The transistor has a 1/4" capstan
envelope with ceramic cap. All leads
are isolated from the stud.
