Spectrum Microwave offers a variety of package options for it’s Amplifier line including our Lower Cost (non-hermetic) Surface-Mount Package.
Critical Features
This package option not only helps keep costs down, but on Higher Power requirements the transistor is bonded right to the Aluminum Nitride heat spreader for cooler operating temperatures.
Compared to MMICs, our LCA design is the clear choice.
