Microwave transistors - From small signal to high power

New technologies have emerged in the development of high-frequency transistors, and some of the old technologies have been considerably refined and extended. New equipment and measurement techniques have been perfected that allow rapid and accurate device characterization at microwave frequencies. As a result of these developments, the list of small-signal and power transistors available for use as amplifiers and oscillators to frequencies as high as 8 GHz has grown dramatically in recent years.
