LDMOS RF Power Transistors

NXP Semiconductors offers two power blocks that promise to expand the RF power industry and become a standard for years to come. The simplicity of these LDMOS transistors lies in the joint availability of RF power in ubiquitous TO-247 and TO-220 power packages, making mounting easy. The TO-247 and TO-220 packages make it possible to mount RF power transistors with a simple through-hole technology, removing the need for a complex solder-reflow process which dramatically simplifies manufacturing. The compact reference circuits can be re-used from 1.8 MHz to 250 MHz resulting in considerable savings and simplified supply chain for most HF and VHF systems.
