Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status as the component is listed as obsolete or end-of-life. Confirm if replacement parts are available from the manufacturer. Check datasheet revisions for any metallization changes. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints using the PowerSO-10RF package dimensions. Validate supply chain sources for genuine components.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring 10 W output power at 870 MHz with 14.3 dB gain. Consider the PowerSO-10RF package for surface-mount assembly needs. Evaluate thermal management requirements given the plastic package construction. Verify that the 7.5 V operating voltage aligns with system power supplies. Assess linearity requirements against portable radio application standards.

Part Context

The PD84010TR-E belongs to the PD84010-E series of RF power transistors. It shares core specifications with the non-trimmed variant but includes tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly. The device represents STMicroelectronics' integration of LDMOS technology into standard plastic SMD packages for improved manufacturability.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct replacements within the PD84010-E family. Consult STMicroelectronics for official obsolescence notices and recommended alternative part numbers. Verify pinout and thermal characteristics match before substitution.
