Mitsubishi Electric MGFC45V5964A GaAs FET Datasheet
The MGFC45V5964A is a hermetically sealed, metal‑ceramic GaAs power FET designed for use in 5.9‑6.4 GHz band amplifiers. It is internally impedance‑matched to a 50 Ω system, providing high output power, gain and efficiency.
Key specifications include a typical P1dB of 32 W, linear gain of 9 dB, and power‑added efficiency of 33 % across the band. Absolute maximum ratings list a drain voltage of –15 V, drain current of 30 A, and total power dissipation of 125 W. Recommended bias conditions are Vgs = 10 V, Id = 8 A with a 25 Ω gate resistor.
