WTB:Motorola MRF628 transistor

Jan 17, 2006 3 Replies

I've had no luck at all finding this transistor. It is a valid number as I was able to find it in an old Moto book, but may not have been in production for long.



Its a 1/2 watt, NPN in a ceramic package with 'windmill' leads. Its meant to be used in the 450-470 MHz band.



Only need a couple. Any lead or suggestions on who might have these would be appreciated.



Steve p.s.-they are used in a 440 MHz repeater


A Google search for MRF628 came up with a few second sources and brokers. This company says they make a replacement:

Chuck, Actually, there are a couple of places that have them but they have a high minimum order, or will only sell large quantities. This outift is one of them. I only need a couple.

On a 'good' day these are $5 parts.

Steve-

If you contacted an Advanced Semiconductor manufacturer's representative and explained your problem, they might even send you a couple of samples.

If that fails, look for a stud version and cut off the stud!
