Product details
Overview
FJX945YTF from ON Semiconductor is an NPN epitaxial silicon transistor in SOT-323 package, rated for 60 V VCBO, 50 V VCEO, and 150 mA IC, with fT = 300 MHz (typ) and hFE = 70–700 (grade-dependent), designed for audio frequency amplification and high-frequency oscillator circuits.
For engineers reviewing the FJX945YTF datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include DC current gain range (grade Y: 120–240), saturation voltage (VCE(sat) ≤ 0.3 V at IC = 100 mA/IB = 10 mA), noise figure (4.0 dB at 1 kHz), output capacitance (2.5 pF), and SOT-323 thermal and layout constraints.
Technical Context
The FJX945YTF operates as a general-purpose RF/NPN switching and amplification device with verified breakdown voltages (BVCBO = 60 V, BVCEO = 50 V) and low leakage (ICBO ≤ 0.1 µA at VCB = 40 V). Its 300 MHz fT and 2.5 pF Cob support stable operation up to VHF band in tuned amplifier and oscillator topologies.
Grade Y classification specifies hFE = 120–240 at VCE = 6 V and IC = 1.0 mA, enabling predictable biasing in linear stages. Complementarity with FJX733 (PNP counterpart) allows matched-pair use in push-pull or differential configurations without external matching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCBO | 60 V - supports collector-base reverse bias up to 60 V without avalanche conduction |
| VCEO | 50 V - maximum safe collector-emitter voltage under open-base conditions |
| IC | 150 mA - continuous collector current rating defining small-signal switching/amplifier headroom |
| fT | 300 MHz (typ) - usable gain-bandwidth limit for RF amplification up to ~100 MHz with margin |
| hFE (Grade Y) | 120–240 - validated DC current gain range enabling stable bias design in Class-A amplifiers |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.3 V at IC = 100 mA / IB = 10 mA - ensures low conduction loss in saturated-switch applications |
| Noise Figure | 4.0 dB at 1 kHz - suitable for low-noise preamplifier stages in audio signal chains |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT-323 (SC-70), surface-mount, 3-pin plastic package with 1.25 mm × 2.10 mm footprint and 0.95 mm height; optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Base) | Control electrode | Receives base current to modulate collector-emitter conduction; requires current-limiting resistor in digital switch or bias network |
| 2 (Emitter) | Current source reference | Common terminal for emitter-grounded amplifier configurations; connects to ground or emitter degeneration resistor |
| 3 (Collector) | Output current path | Delivers amplified/saturated output current; routed to load or next stage with minimal trace inductance for RF stability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High fT performance | 300 MHz typical - enables stable amplification in VHF oscillator and IF amplifier designs |
| Low output capacitance | 2.5 pF at VCB = 6 V - minimizes Miller effect and improves high-frequency gain flatness |
| Grade-specific hFE binning | Y grade = 120–240 - reduces circuit calibration effort in production-grade audio preamps |
| Complementary pairing | Matched with FJX733 (PNP) - supports balanced differential and push-pull topologies without discrete matching |
| Low noise figure | 4.0 dB at 1 kHz - meets SNR requirements for microphone preamplifier and sensor interface stages |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBT3904LT1G | hFE = 100–300 (SOT-23); fT = 300 MHz; VCEO = 40 V; higher ICBO (50 nA) | Lower VCEO limits use in 50 V rail systems; wider hFE spread increases bias sensitivity | Select when SOT-23 footprint compatibility is required and 40 V VCEO suffices |
| BC847BW | hFE = 200–450 (SOT-323); fT = 100 MHz; VCEO = 45 V; higher Cob (4.5 pF) | Lower fT and higher capacitance reduce suitability for >30 MHz oscillator use | Select for cost-sensitive audio gain stages where bandwidth beyond 10 MHz is unnecessary |
Compared with MMBT3904LT1G and BC847BW, the FJX945YTF offers superior VCEO margin (50 V), tighter hFE binning for Grade Y (120–240), and lower Cob-making it preferred for 50 V-tolerant RF oscillator and low-noise preamp designs in space-constrained SOT-323 layouts.

FAQ
What is the hFE range for FJX945YTF?
The FJX945YTF is binned to Grade Y, specifying a DC current gain (hFE) range of 120–240 at VCE = 6 V and IC = 1.0 mA. This tight binning reduces variation in bias point design across production units and supports repeatable performance in audio amplifier and oscillator circuits without individual calibration.
Does FJX945YTF have a complementary PNP part?
Yes, the FJX945YTF has a documented complementary PNP counterpart: the FJX733. Both devices share matching package (SOT-323), voltage ratings, and gain-bandwidth characteristics, enabling direct use in push-pull, differential pair, and complementary symmetry amplifier topologies without external matching components.
What is the maximum operating temperature for FJX945YTF?
The FJX945YTF has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of 150°C and a storage temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Its SOT-323 package delivers thermal resistance (RθJA) of approximately 260°C/W, so derating is required above ~100 mW power dissipation in still-air environments to maintain safe TJ.
Can FJX945YTF be used in oscillator circuits?
Yes, the FJX945YTF is explicitly characterized for high-frequency oscillator use, with a 300 MHz current gain bandwidth product (fT) and low output capacitance (Cob = 2.5 pF). Its stable gain and low noise make it suitable for Colpitts, Hartley, and Clapp oscillator topologies operating up to 80 MHz, especially where compact SOT-323 layout is critical.
What does the 'Y' suffix indicate in FJX945YTF?
The 'Y' in FJX945YTF denotes the hFE grade bin: Y-grade devices are tested and guaranteed to exhibit DC current gain between 120 and 240 at VCE = 6 V and IC = 1.0 mA. This replaces generic 'FJX945' part numbers and ensures predictable biasing in production designs without post-manufacture sorting.
