Description
The main purpose of this bipolar transistor is broadband amplification up to 2 GHz. In the space-saving 3-pin surface-mount SOT490 package electrical performance and reliability are taken to a new level covering a smaller footprint on PC boards than previous packages. In addition to space savings, the SOT490 provides a higher level of reliability than other 3-pin packages, such as more resistance to moisture. Due to the short length of its leads the SOT490 is also reducing package inductances resulting in some better electrical performance. All of these aspects make this device an ideal choice for demanding RF applications.

Features
• Small feedback capacitance
• Low noise figure
• High power gain

Applications
   For low noise and high gain broadband amplifiers at collector currents from 2 mA to 30 mA.
