Product Brief
The BFP650 is a high linearity wideband NPN bipolar RF transistor. The device is based on Infineon’s reliable high volume silicon germanium carbon (SiGe:C) heterojunction bipolar technology. The collector design supports voltages up to VCEO = 4 V and currents up to IC = 150 mA. With its high linearity at currents as low as 30 mA the device supports energy efficient designs. The typical transition frequency is approximately 42 GHz, hence the device offers high power gain at frequencies up to 5 GHz in amplifier applications. the device is housed in an easy to use plastic package with visible leads.
