Paul,

Check out the Advanced Power Technology web site. They have some ap notes on
using some more or less regular power FETs for RF. Nice thing is that the
higher voltage ones will run off straight 170 V rectified AC.

Hi all,

I was thinking about having a go at contriving (I won't say
"designing" for obvious reasons) a class 'C' RF amp using MOSFETs
instead of the usual BJTs/toobz. They seem - on the face of it at
least - ideally suited to the task. I'm just a bit concerned about
whether even the fastest ones would be fast enough, even given
adequate gate drive. I'd be surprised if they weren't good for at
least a few Mhz., but am quite frankly clueless as to MUF. Anyone
know?

Thanks,

p.
