Please consult our website and download the latest versions before actually starting your design. You find the BFP520 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 BFP520 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. 2010-08-16 Package SOT343 BFP520 Package Outline 0.9 ±0.1 2 ±0.2 0.1 MAX. 1.3 0.1 A 1 2 0.1 MIN. 0.15 1.25 ±0.1 3 2.1 ±0.1 4 0.3 +0.1 -0.05 +0.1 0.15 -0.05 0.6 +0.1 -0.05 4x 0.1 0.2 M M A Foot Print 1.6 0.8 0.6 1.15 0.9 Marking Layout (Example) Manufacturer 2005, June Date code (YM) BGA420 Type code Pin 1 Standard Packing Reel ø180 mm = 3.000 Pieces/Reel Reel ø330 mm = 10.000 Pieces/Reel 0.2 2.3 8 4 Pin 1 2.15 1.1 2010-08-16 BFP520 Datasheet Revision History: 16 August 2010 This datasheet replaces the revision from 30 March 2007 and 28 June 2010.
