BFS17 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BFS17 is an NPN bipolar transistor manufactured by NXP Semiconductors, suitable for a wide range of RF applications. It is housed in a compact SOT-23 plastic package, making it ideal for space-constrained designs.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 15V and a maximum collector current (IC) of 25mA. The transition frequency (fT) reaches up to 1.6 GHz at 25mA collector current and 5V collector-emitter voltage, indicating its suitability for high-frequency operations. The DC current gain (hFE) ranges from 25 to 90 under specified conditions.

 

This transistor is designed for applications such as mixers and oscillators in TV tuners, and general RF communications equipment. Its noise figure is typically 4.5 dB at 500 MHz.

 

The BFS17 operates within a junction temperature range of -65°C to +150°C and has a total power dissipation of up to 300mW at a soldering point temperature of 70°C.
