BCP160T
HIGH EFFICIENCY HETEROJUNCTION POWER FET CHIP (.25µm x 1600µm)
The BeRex BCP160T is a GaAs Power pHEMT with a nominal 0.25 micron gate length and 1600 micron gate width
making the product ideally suited for applications where high-gain and medium power in the 1000 MHz to 26.5
GHz frequency range are required. The product may be used in either wideband (6-18 GHz) or narrow-band
applications. The BCP160T is produced using state of the art metallization with SI3N4 passivation and is screened to
assure reliability.
