NPN 6.5 GHz wideband transistor
BFQ135
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
• Optimum temperature profile and
excellent reliability properties
ensured by emitter-ballasting
resistors and application of gold
sandwich metallization.
NPN wideband transistor in a 4-lead
dual-emitter SOT172A2 package with
a ceramic cap. All leads are isolated
from the mounting base.

DEFINITIONS
Data sheet status
Objective specification
This data sheet contains target or goal specifications for product development.
Preliminary specification
This data sheet contains preliminary data; supplementary data may be published later.
Product specification
This data sheet contains final product specifications.
Short-form specification
The data in this specification is extracted from a full data sheet with the same type
number and title. For detailed information see the relevant data sheet or data handbook.
Limiting values
Limiting values given are in accordance with the Absolute Maximum Rating System (IEC 134). Stress above one or
more of the limiting values may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and operation
of the device at these or at any other conditions above those given in the Characteristics sections of the specification
is not implied. Exposure to limiting values for extended periods may affect device reliability.
Application information
Where application information is given, it is advisory and does not form part of the specification.
