Product Brief
The BFP760 is a linear and very low noise 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 = 4.0 V and currents up to IC = 70 mA. With its high linearity at currents as low as 10 mA (see Fig. 5-8) the device supports energy efficient designs. The typical transition frequency is approximately 45 GHz, hence the device offers high power gain at frequencies up to 9 GHz in amplifier applications. The device is housed in an easy to use plastic package with visible leads.
