BLP15H9S10XY

Overview

The BLP15H9S10XY is a 10 W LDMOS driver transistor designed for broadcast and industrial applications. It operates in the frequency range from HF to 2 GHz, featuring excellent ruggedness suitable for digital and analog transmitter environments. The device utilizes a TO-270-2F-1 surface-mount package with an exposed heatsink connected to the drain. Key electrical parameters include a drain-source breakdown voltage of 106 V, a gate-source voltage limit of -6 V to +11 V, and a maximum junction temperature of 225 °C. At 1400 MHz under pulsed RF conditions (VDS=50 V), it delivers 10 W output power with 21 dB gain and 65% drain efficiency.

Feature Summary

• Designed for broadband operation across HF to 2 GHz frequencies
• Integrated dual-sided ESD protection for enhanced handling safety
• Excellent ruggedness capable of withstanding high load mismatch conditions
• High power gain and efficiency optimized for driver stages

Applications

• Broadcast transmitter applications
• Industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) applications
• Digital and analog transmitter driver stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix XY against the manufacturer's current data sheet to confirm packaging details, as suffixes often denote reel specifications or tape-and-reel quantities. Ensure compliance with RoHS requirements by checking the product details on the official Ampleon website. Confirm that the TO-270-2F-1 package variant matches the design-in footprint requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring a robust LDMOS driver transistor operating up to 2 GHz. The device is suitable for Class-AB production test circuits and broadband designs. Consider the thermal resistance of 5.1 K/W when designing heat dissipation solutions. Verify that the required output power does not exceed the 10 W continuous wave rating at the target operating frequency.

Part Context

The BLP15H9S10XY belongs to the BLP15H9S series of power LDMOS transistors manufactured by Ampleon. This series includes variants such as the BLP15H9S30 and BLP15H9S100, which offer higher power outputs. The XY suffix specifically identifies the TO-270-2F-1 package configuration packed in reels of 100 units, distinguishing it from the G-series or Z-series alternatives.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Designers should consult the manufacturer for direct replacements or evaluate other members of the BLP15H9S family based on power and frequency requirements.
