Description:
The MwT-3F is a GaAs MESFET device whose nominal 0.25 micron gate length and 300 micron gate width make it ideallysuited to applications requiring high-gain and linearity in the 500 MHz to 26 GHz frequency range with power outputs ranging
from +20 to +22 dBm. MwT-3F is equally effective for either wideband (e.g. 6 to 18 GHz) or narrow-band applications. All chips
are passivated with SiN (Silicon Nitride).
