BFU520R Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BFU520R is an NPN silicon RF transistor designed for high speed, low noise applications. It is part of the NXP BFU5 family, suitable for small signal to medium power applications up to 2 GHz. The device is housed in a plastic 4-pin dual-emitter SOT143B package.

 

Key electrical specifications include a maximum collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 12 V, collector-base breakdown voltage of 24 V, and emitter-base breakdown voltage of 2 V. The maximum collector current is 30 mA, and total power dissipation is 450 mW at a solder point temperature up to 87°C. The transistor offers a DC current gain (hFE) from 60 to 200 at 5 mA and 8 V, a transition frequency of 10.5 GHz, and a typical gain of 20 dB at 900 MHz.

 

Designed for low noise and high breakdown applications, the BFU520R achieves a minimum noise figure of 0.65 dB at 900 MHz and a typical output power at 1 dB compression of 6.5 dBm. It is AEC-Q101 qualified, making it suitable for automotive applications. The device operates over a junction temperature range of -40°C to 150°C.

 

The BFU520R is surface mountable and intended for use in broadband amplifiers, low noise amplifiers for ISM applications, ISM band oscillators, and other high supply voltage circuits.
