The MRFA2604 is a solid state class AB amplifier specifically designed for TV
transposers and transmitters. This amplifier incorporates microstrip technology
and reliable Motorola push–pull transistors.
The MRFA2604 includes a thermal compensation (differential gain is
constant versus average picture level (APL)) which can be partially discon-
nected.

(1) Temperature is measured at temperature test point (on the flange of the transistor).
(2) Tuned in the factory for optimum thermal correction @ 25°C.
(3) Thermal correction cannot be disconnected, and CW performances are slightly affected (– 5.0 W, – 3% typical), but output power with a
video signal remain the same.
