Description
The PD84006L-E is a common source N-channel,
enhancement-mode lateral Field-Effect RF power
transistor. It is designed for high gain, broad band
commercial and industrial applications. It
operates at 7 V in common source mode at
frequencies up to 1 GHz.
PD84006L-E’s superior gain and efficiency makes
it an ideal solution for portable radio and UHF
RFID reader.
