MDS800
800 Watts, 50 Volts
Pulsed Avionics at 1090 MHz
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MDS800 is a high power COMMON BASE bipolar transistor. It is
designed for pulsed systems at 1090 MHz, with the pulse width and duty
required for MODE-S applications. The device has gold thin-film metalization
and emitter ballasting for proven highest MTTF. The transistor includes input
and output prematch for broadband capability. Low thermal resistance package
reduces junction temperature, extends life.
