DESCRIPTION

The AM83135-015 device is a high power silicon bipolar NPN transistor specifically designed for S-Band radar pulsed output and driver applications.

This device is characterized at 100µsec pulse width and 10 duty cycle, but is capable of operation over a range of pulse widths, duty cycles, and temperatures, and can withstand a 3:1 output VSWR with a + 1 dB input overdrive. Low RF thermal resistance, refractory/gold metallization, and computerized automatic wire bonding techniques ensure high reliability and product consistency (including phase characteristics).

The AM83135-015 is supplied in the IMPAC™ Hermetic Metal/Ceramic package with internal Input/Output impedance matching circuitry, and is intended for military and other high reliability applications.
