  • Abstract
    Silicon RF LDMOSFET technology is demonstrated with excellent RF performance. It achieves high power gain of 14.5dB with a high power of 130W at 2.1GHz. Its high efficiency and high linearity makes it highly desired for base station applications. 2mil substrate enables the best-in-class of thermal stability. Low HCI effect, integrated ESD and gold metal ensure high long-term reliability.
