DESCRIPTION:
These power transistors are produced by PPC's DOUBLE
DIFFUSED PLANAR process. This technology produces high
voltage devices with excellent switching speeds, frequency
response, gain linearity, saturation voltages, high current gain,
and safe operating areas. They are intended for use in
Commercial, Industrial, and Military power switching, amplifier,
and regulator applications.
Ultrasonically bonded leads and controlled die mount
techniques are utilized to further increase the SOA capability
and inherent reliability of these devices. The temperature
range to 200
°
C permits reliable operation in high ambients, and
the hermetically sealed package insures maximum reliability
and long life.
