DESCRIPTION

The NE721S01 is a low cost 0.8 µm recessed gate GaAs MESFET, suitable for both amplifier and oscillator applications. Larger gate geometry make this device ideal for second and third stages of low noise amplifiers operating in the 1-12 GHz frequency range. The NE721S01 is fabricated with an epitaxial process resulting in excellent phase noise in oscillator applications up to 14 GHz. NECs latest high performance/low cost plastic packaging technology make the NE721S01 suitable for GPS, TVRO, DBS, PRD and other commercial applications.
