Description
The SD2941-10 is a gold metalized N-channel
MOS field-effect RF power transistor, intended for
use in 28 V to 50 V dc large signal applications up
to 230 MHz. It offers 25% lower RDS(on) than the
industry standard, with 20% higher PSAT than
ST's SD2931-10 device. The SD2941-10 is
housed in the low thermal M174 non-pedestal
package, offering 25% lower thermal resistance
than the industry standard, thus rendering it the
"best-in-class" transistor for ISM applications,
where reliability and ruggedness are critical
factor.
