DESCRIPTION
The NE944 series of NPN silicon epitaxial bipolar transistors
is intended for use in general purpose UHF oscillator and
mixer applications. It is suitable for automotive keyless entry
and TV tuner designs.
The device features stable oscillation and small frequency
drift during changes in the supply voltage and over the
ambient temperature range.
