BFP720FESD

The BFP720FESD is a Silicon Germanium Carbon (SiGe:C) NPN Heterojunction wideband Bipolar RF Transistor (HBT) in a thin, small, flat, 4-pin dual emitter plastic package with visible leads. The device is fitted with internal protection circuits, which enhance robustness against ESD and high RF input power strongly. The device combines robustness with very high RF gain and lowest noise figure at low operation current for use in a wide range of wireless applications. The BFP720FESD is especially well-suited for portable battery-powered applications in which reduced power consumption is a key requirement. Device design supports collector voltages up to 4.2 V.
