I recently viewed the Ameritron factory tour. In this web video, Mr. Hood held up an MRF150 transistor and stated, "It says M/A-COM, on it, but Motorola actually makes it." This is not correct. M/A-COM in Torrance, California, makes the MRF150, as well as many other "MRF Industrial Avionics Transistors" previously made by Motorola. M/A-COM purchased this product line - including all semiconductor die masks, and other materials and properties, and took over manufacturing of these transistors from Motorola in 2001. Motorola no longer makes these transistors, including the MRF150. www.macom.com Thanks for the interesting content!
