Product Description
The NPTB00004A GaN HEMT is a wideband transistor optimized for DC-6 GHz operation. This
device has been designed for CW, pulsed, and linear operation with output power levels to 5W
(37 dBm) in an industry standard surface mount SOIC plastic package. At frequencies below
3GHz, the NPTB00004A is a drop in replacement for the NPTB00004.
