UPA838TF
NPN SILICON EPITAXIAL
TWIN TRANSISTOR
PRELIMINARY DATA SHEET
California Eastern Laboratories
SMALL PACKAGE OUTLINE:
SOT-363 package measures just 2.0 mm x 1.25 mm
LOW HEIGHT PROFILE:
Just 0.60 mm high
TWO DIFFERENT DIE TYPES:
Q1 - Ideal oscillator transistor
Q2 - Ideal buffer amplifier transistor
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The UPA838TF contains one NE688 and one NE687 NPN high
frequency silicon bipolar chip. NEC's new low profile TF
package is ideal for all portable wireless applications where
reducing component height is a prime consideration. Each
transistor chip is independently mounted and easily configured
for oscillator/buffer amplifier and other applications.
Notes: 1. Pulsed measurement, pulse width
≤
350
μ
s, duty cycle
≤
2 %.
2. Collector to base capacitance when measured with capacitance meter (automatic balanced bridge method), with
emitter connected to guard pin of capacitances meter.
