Product Overview

The RD70HVF1C‑501 is Mitsubishi Electric’s N‑channel enhancement‑mode RF power MOSFET for VHF/UHF radio amplifiers. Running on 12.5V supply, it delivers 70W @175 MHz and 50W @530 MHz. Ceramic flange package ensures good thermal performance and VSWR ruggedness for land mobile radios and transmitters.

Core Advantages

High Output Power & Efficiency

70W VHF / 50W UHF output, typical drain efficiency above 60%, lowering heat generation for RF amplifier circuits.

Band‑Dependent Gain Performance

>10.6 dB gain @175 MHz VHF, >7.0 dB gain @520 MHz UHF, reduces input‑drive requirements.

Rugged Thermal & VSWR Tolerance

Flange‑mount package with low thermal resistance, withstands VSWR mismatch for reliable radio‑system operation.

12.5V Vehicle‑Supply Optimized

Optimized for 12.5V DC input, ideal for vehicle‑mounted mobile communication equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What frequency ranges does the RD70HVF1C‑501 support?

A: It supports high‑power amplification for VHF 136‑175 MHz and UHF 400‑530 MHz communication bands.

Q2: What is the nominal supply voltage for this RF MOSFET?

A: Nominal operating voltage is 12.5V DC, absolute maximum 30V DC, designed for 12V vehicle radio systems.

Q3: What does suffix ‑501 mean? Is there pin‑compatible model?

A: Suffix‑501 stands for RoHS‑compliant version. RD70HVF1C (without suffix) is pin‑to‑pin compatible with identical electrical performance but non‑RoHS.

Q4: What is the package type of RD70HVF1C‑501?

A: Official package is R‑CDFM‑F2 ceramic flange 3‑pin package. It is often called TO‑220‑style flange in RF industry, NOT standard plastic TO‑220 package.

Q5: How to mount RD70HVF1C‑501 for good heat dissipation?

A: Fasten ceramic flange firmly to flat heatsink with thermal grease. Keep junction temperature below 175°C for long‑term reliability.

Q6: Are there cross‑reference or alternative RF MOSFET parts?

A: RD60HVF1 is lower‑power alternative for similar frequency range. It is not drop‑in replacement; input & output matching circuits need re‑tuning.

Q7: What is the gain difference between VHF and UHF band?

A: Gain>10.6 dB @175 MHz VHF; gain drops to>7.0 dB @520 MHz UHF. Higher input drive power is required for UHF applications.

Q8: Where to get datasheet, reference circuit and bulk quotation?

A: Submit your request via Quick Inquiry form for official datasheet, application notes and volume pricing.

Q9: What is difference between RD70HVF1C and RD70HVF1C‑501?

A: They share identical die, package and electrical specs. Suffix‑501 only indicates RoHS‑compliant production batch, pin‑to‑pin direct replacement without circuit modification.
