DESCRIPTION
The TriQuint TGF4240-SCC is a single gate 2.4 mm Discrete GaAs Heterostructure Field Effect Transistor (HFET) designed for high-efficiency power applications up to 12 GHz in Class A and Class AB operation.
Typical performance at 8.5 GHz is 31.5 dBm power output, 10 dB Gain, and 56% PAE.
Bond-pad and backside metalization is gold plated for compatibility with eutectic alloy attach methods as well as thermocompression and thermosonic wire-bonding processes.
The TGF4240-SCC is readily assembled using automatic equipment.
