th mb-h
= 0.15 K/W unless
otherwise specified. R
GS
=4 per section; optimum load impedance per section = 3.2 + j4.3 (V

Ruggedness in class-B operation
The BLF278 is capable of withstanding a load mismatch corresponding to VSWR = 7:1 through all phases under the
following conditions: V
DS
= 50 V; f = 108 MHz at rated load power.
