Please consult our website and download the latest versions before actually starting your design. You find the BFR740L3RH SPICE GP model in the internet in MWO- and ADS-format, which you can import into these circuit simulation tools very quickly and conveniently. The model already contains the package parasitics and is ready to use for DC and high frequency simulations. The terminals of the model circuit correspond to the pin configuration of the device. The model parameters have been extracted and verified up to 10 GHz using typical devices. The BFR740L3RH SPICE GP model reflects the typical DC- and RF-performance within the limitations which are given by the SPICE GP model itself. Besides the DC characteristics all S-parameters in magnitude and phase, as well as noise figure (including optimum source impedance, equivalent noise resistance and flicker noise) and intermodulation have been extracted. 8 2010-09-08 Package TSLP-3-9 BFR740L3RH Package Outline Bottom view 0.4 ±0.035 1) Top view 0.6 ±0.05 0.31+0.01 -0.02 1 2 3 2 1 0.35 ±0.05 Pin 1 marking 1±0.05 3 2 x 0.25 ±0.035 1) 0.575 ±0.05 0.5 ±0.035 1) 2 x 0.15 ±0.035 1) 1) Dimension applies to plated terminal Foot Print 0.225 0.225 Solder mask 0.255 R0.1 0.2 0.2 0.17 0.15 Copper 0.5 0.95 0.2 0.35 1 0.45 R0.19 0.315 0.6 0.38 For board assembly information please refer to Infineon website "Packages" Stencil apertures Marking Layout (Example) BFR705L3RH Type code Pin 1 marking Laser marking Standard Packing Reel ø180 mm = 15.000 Pieces/Reel 0.35 Pin 1 marking 8 1.2 4 0.8 9 2010-09-08 BFR740L3RH Datasheet Revision History: 8 September 2010 This datasheet replaces the revision from 30 March 2007.
