APPLICATION INFORMATION FOR CLASS-AB OPERATION
Th=25°C; Rth mb-h = 0.15 K/W unless otherwise specified. RF performance in CW operation in a common source
class-AB circuit. RGS = 536 per section; optimum load impedance per section = 1.34 +j0.34 ; VDS =32V.
Note
1. Assuming a third order amplitude transfer characteristic, 1 dB compression corresponds with 30% synchronized
input/25% synchronized output compression in television service (negative modulation, CCIR system).
Ruggedness in class-AB operation
The BLF368 is capable of withstanding a load mismatch corresponding to VSWR = 10: 1 through all phases under the
following conditions: VDS = 32 V; f = 225 MHz at rated output power.

Notes
1. American Technical Ceramics (ATC) capacitor, type 100B or other capacitor of the same quality.
2. The striplines L1, L3 to L11, L16 to L22 and L24 are on a double copper-clad printed circuit board with glass
microfibre PTFE dielectric (εr= 2.2); thickness 116 inch; thickness of copper sheet 2 ×35 µm.
3. Semi-rigid cables L2 and L23 are soldered on to striplines L1 and L24.
4. A copper strap, thickness 0.8 mm, is soldered over the complete striplines L16 to L21 to avoid overheating by large
RF currents.

DATA SHEET STATUS
Notes
1. Please consult the most recently issued data sheet before initiating or completing a design.
2. The product status of the device(s) described in this data sheet may have changed since this data sheet was
published. The latest information is available on the Internet at URL http://www.semiconductors.philips.com.
3. For data sheets describing multiple type numbers, the highest-level product status determines the data sheet status.
LEVEL DATA SHEET
STATUS(1) PRODUCT
STATUS(2)(3) DEFINITION
I Objective data Development This data sheet contains data from the objective specification for product
development. Philips Semiconductors reserves the right to change the
specification in any manner without notice.
II Preliminary data Qualification This data sheet contains data from the preliminary specification.
Supplementary data will be published at a later date. Philips
Semiconductors reserves the right to change the specification without
notice, in order to improve the design and supply the best possible
product.
III Product data Production This data sheet contains data from the product specification. Philips
Semiconductors reserves the right to make changes at any time in order
to improve the design, manufacturing and supply. Relevant changes will
be communicated via a Customer Product/Process Change Notification
(CPCN).
DEFINITIONS
Short-form specification The data in a short-form
specification is extracted from a full data sheet with the
same type number and title. For detailed information see
the relevant data sheet or data handbook.
Limiting values definition Limiting values given are in
accordance with the Absolute Maximum Rating System
(IEC 60134). Stress above one or more of the limiting
values may cause permanent damage to the device.
These are stress ratings only and operation of the device
attheseoratanyotherconditionsabovethosegiveninthe
Characteristics sections of the specification is not implied.
Exposure to limiting values for extended periods may
affect device reliability.
Application information Applications that are
described herein for any of these products are for
illustrative purposes only. Philips Semiconductors make
norepresentationor warrantythatsuchapplicationswill be
suitable for the specified use without further testing or
modification.
