High-power transistors aimed at avionics applications

News Release from: Link Microtek Ltd

Link Microtek has expanded its transistor offering with the addition of a family of high-power devices aimed at avionics, radar and TACAN applications. Manufactured by Microsemi, these high-gain transistors utilise bipolar, LDMOS or VDMOS technology for maximum design flexibility and are available in a wide variety of package styles. They cover a broad frequency range of 1MHz to 3.5GHz and operate from supply voltages between 12.5 and 50VDC.

Providing high power outputs to minimise the number of devices required for the final stage, the Microsemi transistors incorporate an internal pre-match, which enables them to deliver the best possible performance over their entire operating frequency range.

The transistors feature gold-plated packages for long lifetime and are produced using automated assembly methods to achieve lot-to-lot consistency. All parts are subjected to automatic RF testing over their operating band to ensure that they meet their specified performance levels.
