DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS
The LP6872P100 is a packaged Aluminum Gallium Arsenide / Indium Gallium Arsenide (AlGaAs/InGaAs) Pseudomorphic
µ
µ
High Electron Mobility Transistor (PHEMT), utilizing an Electron-Beam direct-write 0.25 m by 720 m Schottky barrier
gate. The recessed “mushroom” gate structure minimizes parasitic gate-source and gate resistances. The epitaxial
structure and processing have been optimized for reliable high-power applications. The LP6872 also features Si3N4
passivation and is available in die form.
Typical applications include commercial and military high-performance power amplifiers, including SATCOM uplink
transmitters, and medium-haul digital radio transmitters. Space level screening to FSS JANS grade is also available.
The LP6872-P100 may be procured in a variety of grades, depending upon specific user requirements. Standard lot
screening is patterned after MIL-STD-19500, JANC grade.
