Abstract
A transistor package includes a lead frame, a wide band-gap transistor attached to the lead frame, and an over-mold surrounding the lead frame and the wide band-gap transistor. The wide band-gap transistor has a peak output power greater than 150 W when operated at a frequency up to 3.8 GHz. Using an over-mold along with a wide band-gap transistor in the transistor package allows the transistor package to achieve an exceptionally high efficiency, gain, and bandwidth, while keeping the manufacturing cost of the transistor package low.
