5CX3000A Datasheet, PDF (1/1 Pages) Communications & Power Industries, Inc. – RF amplifier at 30 MHz

5CX3000A/8966
The 5CX3000A/8966 is designed for use as a Class
AB1 linear amplifier in audio or radio frequency
applications. Its characteristic low intermodula-
tion distortion makes it especially suitable for
single sideband service.
