GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 0912GN-300 is an internally matched, COMMON SOURCE, class
AB GaN on SiC HEMT transistor capable of providing over 18dB gain,
300 Watts of pulsed RF output power at 128μs pulse width, 10% duty
factor across the 960 to 1215 MHz band. The transistor has internal pre-
match for optimal performance. This hermetically sealed transistor can
be used for Broadband Avionics Data Link applications. It utilizes gold
metallization and eutectic attach to provide highest reliability and
superior ruggedness.
