Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the operating frequency range of BLF8G10LS‑160,118?
A: The operating frequency range is 920 MHz‑960 MHz, optimized for W‑CDMA multi‑carrier base‑station applications.
Q2: What does suffix ,118 stand for?
A: Suffix ,118 = Tape & Reel packaging for SMT assembly. Suffix ,115 is bulk tray for manual mounting. Electrical specifications are identical for both suffixes.
Q3: What is the correct package for BLF8G10LS‑160,118?
A: Official package is SOT502B (ceramic flangeless flat‑lead). Some documents incorrectly mark it as SOT‑502A / SOT1244B, those are not correct.
Q4: What are the replacement parts for BLF8G10LS‑160,118?
A: Same‑die direct alternative: BLF8G10LS‑160,115 (bulk tray). For new designs, please refer to Ampleon’s latest Gen9 LDMOS series. Note: Pin‑to‑pin compatible third‑party parts require re‑tuning matching networks.
Q5: What is the difference between 160 W CW and 35 W W‑CDMA average power?
A: 160 W is CW saturated output power under continuous‑wave test condition. 35 W is the average output power for real‑world multi‑carrier W‑CDMA modulated signals in base‑station working scenarios.
Q6: Can I use other‑brand LDMOS as drop‑in replacement?
A: Drop‑in replacement is not recommended. Different manufacturers have different input/output impedance. Matching circuits must be re‑tuned. Sample validation is mandatory before mass production.
Q7: Why is BLF8G10LS‑160,118 marked discontinued?
A: Ampleon released PCN in September 2021, this Gen8 device is phased out. Stock is limited, new projects should adopt newer generation parts.
Q8: What is the recommended Vds supply voltage and IDQ for BLF8G10LS‑160,118?
A: Recommended test Vds = 30 V, maximum Vdss = 65 V. Quiescent drain current IDQ = 1100 mA.
Q9: How to get datasheet, S‑parameters or quotation?
A: Please submit an inquiry via our contact form. We will provide datasheet, S‑parameter files and pricing information.
