Product Brief

The BFP420F is a low noise wideband NPN bipolar RF transistor. The collector design supports voltages up to VCEO = 4.5 V and currents up to IC = 60 mA. The device is especially suited for mobile applications in which low power consumption is a key requirement. The typical transition frequency is approximately 25 GHz, hence the device offers high power gain at frequencies up to 4.5 GHz in amplifier applications. The device is housed in a thin small flat plastic package with visible leads.
