Product details
Overview
BFR92WH6327XTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is an RF bipolar NPN transistor optimized for low-noise amplifier (LNA) stages in 5 GHz wireless systems, featuring 15 V collector-emitter breakdown voltage (VCEO), 5 GHz transition frequency (fT), and 1.8 dB minimum noise figure at 5 GHz - deployed in Wi-Fi 5/6 front-end modules.
For engineers reviewing the BFR92WH6327XTSA1 datasheet, BFR92WH6327XTSA1 pinout, BFR92WH6327XTSA1 application, or BFR92WH6327XTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include noise figure vs. gain trade-off at 5 GHz, SOT323-3 thermal resistance, DC bias stability under RF load, and matching network design constraints for IEEE 802.11a/n/ac bands.
Technical Context
This device employs a silicon epitaxial planar NPN structure with gold-metallized emitter and base contacts to sustain high fT and low base resistance. Its fT of 5 GHz and maximum oscillation frequency (fMAX) of 7 GHz enable stable small-signal amplification up to upper UNII-3 band (5.725–5.850 GHz).
Designed for Class-A biasing, it delivers 12 dB typical gain at 5 GHz with 5 mA collector current (IC) and 5 V collector-emitter voltage (VCE). The base-collector junction capacitance (CBC) is 0.25 pF, critical for input impedance matching in narrowband LNA designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 15 V - sets maximum allowable supply rail for LNA stage without breakdown |
| fT | 5 GHz - defines usable small-signal bandwidth limit for gain-flat amplification |
| Minimum NF | 1.8 dB @ 5 GHz - determines weakest detectable signal level in receiver chain |
| GMAX | 12 dB @ 5 GHz - specifies peak available power gain under optimal conjugate match |
| CBC | 0.25 pF - directly impacts input matching network component values and Q-factor |
| Ptot | 250 mW - constrains continuous DC bias and RF power handling in SOT323-3 package |
Pinout & Package
SOT323-3 package: plastic surface-mount case with gull-wing leads, 1.3 mm × 2.1 mm footprint, 0.95 mm height, and 1.9 mm lead pitch. Thermal resistance RthJA = 300 K/W (JEDEC JESD51-2).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Emitter) | Current sink terminal | DC return path and RF ground reference; requires low-inductance connection to PCB ground plane |
| 2 (Base) | Control input | High-impedance node sensitive to parasitic capacitance; must be isolated from RF traces and guard-ringed |
| 3 (Collector) | Active output terminal | RF output node; connects to matching network and subsequent stage; carries full RF current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-noise operation at 5 GHz | 1.8 dB NF enables high-sensitivity WLAN receivers meeting ETSI EN 300 328 spectral mask |
| Gold metallization | Reduces base resistance and improves high-frequency current gain consistency across temperature |
| Optimized for 5 V bias | Enables direct integration with standard 5 V LDOs in compact Wi-Fi SoM designs |
| SOT323-3 footprint | Supports automated placement and reflow; compatible with IPC-7351B density class L |
Applications
| Wi-Fi 5/6 LNA Stage | 5 GHz ISM Band Receiver |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar RF NPN transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BFP740FESD | Higher fT (10 GHz), lower NF (1.3 dB), but 12 V VCEO and SOT343 package | Preferred for 6 GHz Wi-Fi 6E where extended bandwidth required | Select if system operates above 5.85 GHz or requires <1.5 dB NF |
| MRF9011LT1G | Lower fT (3.5 GHz), higher P1dB (15 dBm), TO-92 package | Suitable for sub-4 GHz ISM or legacy 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi LNA | Choose only for cost-sensitive 2.4 GHz designs where 5 GHz performance not needed |
Compared with BFR92WH6327XTSA1, BFP740FESD offers superior high-frequency noise and gain but reduced voltage tolerance and different package thermal profile; MRF9011LT1G trades bandwidth for ruggedness and cost at lower frequencies - neither is pin-compatible, requiring layout and matching redesign.

FAQ
What is the recommended DC bias condition for optimal noise figure at 5 GHz?
Infineon specifies 5 V VCE, 5 mA IC, and grounded emitter for minimum 1.8 dB noise figure. Base bias must be applied via 10 kΩ resistor from 5 V rail, with RF choke and bypass capacitor to ensure stable quiescent point under large-signal modulation.
Can BFR92WH6327XTSA1 be used in Class AB or switching configurations?
No - this device is characterized and qualified only for Class-A small-signal amplification. Its fT and CBC are optimized for linear gain, not switching speed or saturation recovery. Use dedicated RF switches like BGX50xx series for transmit/receive antenna switching.
Is the SOT323-3 package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes - BFR92WH6327XTSA1 uses lead-free solderable terminations and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH SVHC regulations. The "XTSA1" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging per JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1.
Does Infineon provide S-parameter data for this transistor?
Yes - S-parameters (S11, S21, S12, S22) from 0.1 to 6 GHz are published in the official BFR92W datasheet (document ID: BFR92W_DS_v02_00_EN), including both cold and hot simulation models for ADS and Cadence AWR.
