RA30H4452M RF Module, 440-520 MHz, 30 Watt, 12.5v For MOBILE RADIO - Mitsubishi Electric Semiconductor

DESCRIPTION

 

The RA30H4452M is a 30-watt RF MOSFET Amplifier Module for 12.5-volt mobile radios that operate in the 440- to 520-MHz range.

 

The battery can be connected directly to the drain of the enhancement-mode MOSFET transistors. Without the gate voltage (VGG=0V), only a small leakage current flows into the drain and the RF input signal attenuates up to 60 dB. The output power and drain current increase as the gate voltage increases.

 

With a gate voltage around 4V (minimum), output power and drain current increases substantially. The nominal output power becomes available at 4.5V (typical) and 5V (maximum). At

VGG=5V, the typical gate current is 1 mA.

 

This module is designed for non-linear FM modulation, but may also be used for linear modulation by setting the drain quiescent current with the gate voltage and controlling the output power with

the input power.
