RF Amplifier VHF FM 87.5- 108 MHz based MOSFET BLF245

RF Amplifier VHF FM 87.5- 108 Mhz based Mosfet BLF245

This is the RF amplifier for VHF/FM range frequency of 87.5- 108 MHz. The circuit built using power transistor MOSFET BLF245.

The achievement of this 30W RF amplifier was designed to take place on a heatsink microprocessor PC. Equipped with its fans, the advantage of this method of cooling was chosen for the fact it is common and not very expensive. The size of the circuit will adapt quite easily to the type of sink that you have available, nine if possible, because often, those of recovery, the fans have already lived and the price of a new model remains very affordable.

About RF Amplifier
An RF power amplifier is a type of electronic amplifier which is utilised to convert a low-power radio-frequency signal into a larger signal of significant power, usually for driving the antenna of a transmitter. It is usually optimized to have high efficiency, high output Power (P1dB) compression, good gain, good return loss on the input and output, and optimum heat dissipation.

The basic applications of the RF power amplifier include driving to another high power source, driving a transmitting antenna, microwave heating, and exciting resonant cavity structures. Among these applications, driving transmitter antennas is most well known.
