            <description>
Arcos 347 stainless steel electrodes are manufactured for high temperature welding applications. Bare version of ER347 welds chromium-nickel base metals of similar composition stabilized with columbium or titanium, and can be used for welding base metals 302, 320, and 347. Developed for 302, 304, 321, and 347 welding grades, covered version of E347 is utilized where conditions require maximum resistance to corrosion and where weld metal is subject to temperatures above 700&amp;#176;F.

They operate up to 18 GHz, have 55% power added efficiency (PAE), and produce up to 90 W of output power. Areas of use include high-frequency applications such as mobile base station, defense, and space communications systems.

            <title>HV-HBT Transistors consolidate 3G/4G mobile infrastructure.</title>

            <description>
Integrating 2 stages into one package, 28 V HBT (heterojunction bipolar transistor) amplifiers AP631 (4 W) and AP632 (7 W) are suited as pre-drivers and drivers for RF section of base station radio. Linearity minimizes additional signal distortion for repeater applications when used in final amplifier stages and reduces backoff power requirements to minimize distortion from high PAR (peak to average ratio) signals in 3G/4G mobile base stations.
