Description
M/A-COM's PH1617-60 is a silicon bipolar NPN transistor
intended for use as a common emitter class AB stage in power
amplifiers that operate in the 1615 to 1685 MHz range. This
transistor features internal input and output impedance matching,
diffused emitter ballasting and gold metalization.
The PH1617-60 is packaged in a low cost, non-hermetic ceramic
package which has very low thermal impedance.
