As an example, by shorting the second gate to the source, higher gain can be realized than with single gate MESFETs. This device is available in a mini-mold (surface mount) package. 1 Drain to Source Voltage, VDS (V) ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS (TA = 2 C) PART NUMBER NE2339 PACKAGE OUTLINE 39 SYMBOL PARAMETERS AND CONDITIONS UNITS MIN TYP MAX Noise Figure at, VG2S = 1 V, ID = 1 ma, f = 9 MHz db 1.1 2.
