60 W SiC RF Power MESFET Die

Cree’s CRF24060 is a silicon carbide (SiC) RF power Metal-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MESFET). SiC has superior properties compared to silicon or gallium arsenide, including higher breakdown voltage, higher saturated electron drift velocity, and higher thermal conductivity. SiC MESFETs offer greater power density and wider bandwidths compared to Si and GaAs transistors.
