E B NPN SILICON RF TRANSISTOR NE856 SERIES NEC s NPN SILICON HIGH FREQUENCY TRANSISTOR FEATURES HIGH GAIN BANDWIDTH PRODUCT: fT = 7 GHz LOW NOISE FIGURE: 1.1 dB at 1 GHz HIGH COLLECTOR CURRENT: 100 mA HIGH RELIABILITY METALLIZATION 00 (CHIP) 35 (MICRO-X) LOW COST DESCRIPTION NEC s NE856 series of NPN epitaxial silicon transistors is designed for low cost amplifier and oscillator applications. Low noise figures, high gain, and high current capability equate to wide dynamic range and excellent linearity. The NE856 series offers excellent performance and reliability at low cost. This is 32 (TO-92) 34 (SOT 89 STYLE) achieved by NEC s titanium/platinum/gold metallization sys- tem and their direct nitride passivated base surface process. The NE856 series is available in chip form and a Micro-x package for high frequency applications. It is also available in several low cost plastic package styles. 19 (3 PIN ULTRA SUPER MINI MOLD) 18 (SOT 343 STYLE) NE85600 NOISE FIGURE AND GAIN vs. FREQUENCY VCC = 10 V, IC 7 mA 4.0 20 MSG 3.5 GA 15 MAG 10 3.0 30 (SOT 323 STYLE) 33 (SOT 23 STYLE) 2.5 5 NFMIN 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.4 0.5 1.0 2 3 4 5 Frequency, f (GHz) 39 (SOT 143 STYLE) 39R (SOT 143R STYLE) The information in this document is subject to change without notice.
