PRELIMINARY DATA SHEET NPN SILICON TRANSISTOR NE856M23 OUTLINE DIMENSIONS (Units in mm) FEATURES PACKAGE OUTLINE M23 NEW MINIATURE M23 PACKAGE: – World's smallest transistor package footprint — leads are completely underneath package body – Low profile/0.55 mm package height – Ceramic substrate for better RF performance • LOW NOISE FIGURE: NF = 1.4 dB at 1 GHz • HIGH COLLECTOR CURRENT: IC MAX = 100 mA 0.5 0.25 1 0.4 1.0 • 2 DESCRIPTION 0.15 0.6 0.2 0.15 BOTTOM VIEW PIN CONNECTIONS 1. Collector 2. Emitter 3. Base 0.55 The NE856M23 transistor is designed for low cost amplifier and oscillator applications. Low noise figure, high gain and high current capability equate to wide dynamic range and excellent linearity. NEC's new low profile/ceramic substrate style "M23" package is ideal for today's portable wireless applications. The NE856 is also available in chip, Micro-x, and eight different low cost plastic surface mount package styles. 0.25 3 ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS (TA = 25°C) PART NUMBER EIAJ1 REGISTERED NUMBER PACKAGE OUTLINE SYMBOLS PARAMETERS AND CONDITIONS NE856M23 2SC5649 M23 UNITS MIN GHz 3 fT Gain Bandwidth at VCE = 3 V, IC = 7 mA, f = 1 GHz NF Noise Figure at VCE = 3 V, IC = 7 mA, f = 1 GHz dB Insertion Power Gain at VCE = 3 V, IC = 7 mA, f = 1 GHz dB |S21E|2 hFE2 Forward Current Gain at VCE = 3 V, IC = 7 mA ICBO Collector Cutoff Current at VCB = 10 V, IE = 0 µA IEBO Emitter Cutoff Current at VEB = 1 V, IC = 0 µA CRE3 Feedback Capacitance at VCB = 3 V, IE = 0, f = 1 MHz pF TYP 4.5 1.4 7 MAX 2.5 10.0 80 145 1 1 0.7 1.5 Notes: 1.
