Product details
Overview
FJX992TF from onsemi is a PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) designed as an audio-frequency low-noise amplifier, featuring VCEO = −120 V, hFE = 200–700 at IC = −2 mA, fT = 100 MHz, and Cob = 4 pF; it is used in high-voltage, low-distortion preamplifier stages of professional audio equipment.
For engineers reviewing the FJX992TF datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its high-voltage PNP operation, excellent hFE linearity, low output capacitance, thermal resistance of 530 °C/W, and SC-70 package compatibility with space-constrained analog signal chains.
Technical Context
This device operates as a linear PNP BJT optimized for low-noise amplification in the audio band, with specified breakdown voltages (VCEO, VCBO = −120 V) enabling use in high-headroom biasing schemes. Its hFE range (200–700) and strong linearity support stable gain control across collector currents from −0.1 mA to −2 mA.
The FJX992TF delivers 100 MHz current-gain bandwidth (fT) under VCE = −6 V, IC = −1 mA conditions, while maintaining low output capacitance (Cob = 4 pF at VCB = −10 V), supporting wideband stability in multi-stage amplifier topologies without excessive phase shift.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −120 V: Enables safe operation in high-voltage audio rails up to ±60 V supply configurations. |
| hFE | 200–700 at IC = −2 mA: Supports precise DC biasing and predictable small-signal gain in discrete amplifier designs. |
| fT | 100 MHz: Ensures adequate bandwidth for full audio spectrum (20 Hz–20 kHz) with margin for harmonic content and slew-rate stability. |
| Cob | 4 pF at VCB = −10 V: Minimizes Miller-effect degradation in common-emitter gain stages. |
| PD | 235 mW at TA = 25 °C: Defines maximum continuous dissipation before thermal derating begins (1.88 mW/°C above 25 °C). |
| RJA | 530 °C/W: Indicates thermal performance on standard FR-4 PCB (76 × 114 mm, minimum land pattern); requires careful layout for >100 mW operation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SC-70 (Case 419AB), 3-lead surface-mount plastic package, dimensions 1.25 mm × 2.0 mm × 0.9 mm, rated for reflow soldering per J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Base | Control terminal for forward-biased PNP operation; requires negative base current relative to emitter to turn on. |
| 2 | Emitter | Current source terminal in PNP configuration; typically connected to higher potential (e.g., VCC or audio rail). |
| 3 | Collector | Output current sink terminal; voltage swing referenced to emitter, supports −120 V breakdown rating. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-voltage PNP structure | VCEO = VCBO = −120 V enables robust operation in high-supply analog front-ends without derating. |
| Excellent hFE linearity | Minimizes harmonic distortion in Class-A amplifier stages where gain consistency across signal amplitude is critical. |
| Low output capacitance | Cob = 4 pF reduces frequency-dependent feedback and improves stability in high-gain CE configurations. |
| Pb-free and halide-free | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC JS709B, suitable for environmentally regulated industrial and consumer products. |
Applications
| Professional Audio Preamplifiers | High-Voltage Analog Signal Conditioning |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Low-noise voltage amplification stage in microphone preamplifiers and channel strips requiring wide dynamic range and minimal added distortion. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete PNP BJT configured in common-emitter topology to provide 30–40 dB gain with controlled input impedance and low thermal drift. Use Value: High hFE linearity and 100 MHz fT preserve transient fidelity and harmonic integrity across the full 20 Hz–20 kHz band. | Use Scenario: Input buffer and level-shifting stage in industrial sensor interfaces handling ±40 V sensor outputs before ADC conditioning. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-breakdown PNP emitter follower providing isolation and rail-to-rail signal translation without saturation risk. Use Value: −120 V VCEO and −120 V VCBO allow direct interfacing to high-voltage transducers without external clamping networks. |
| Discrete Guitar Amplifier Tone Stages | Low-Noise Instrumentation Front-Ends |
Use Scenario: Gain cell in overdrive-capable guitar amplifier tone stacks where soft clipping and harmonic richness are design goals. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Class-A biased PNP amplifier operating near IC = −2 mA to exploit optimal hFE and linearity region. Use Value: Predictable hFE spread (200–700) allows matched-pair selection for push-pull symmetry, while low Cob preserves high-frequency string harmonics. | Use Scenario: First-stage amplifier in medical ECG or precision thermocouple signal chains requiring sub-10 nV/√Hz noise performance. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-noise PNP preamp configured with degenerated emitter to optimize noise figure and input impedance matching. Use Value: Verified ICBO ≤ −100 nA and IEBO ≤ −100 nA ensure negligible leakage-induced offset drift at body-temperature operating points. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP audio-frequency amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBT4403 | VCEO = −40 V, hFE = 100–300, fT = 200 MHz, Cob = 6 pF | Lower breakdown limits restrict use to ≤±20 V supplies; higher fT offers wider bandwidth but reduced voltage headroom. | Select when supply rails are ≤±15 V and bandwidth >100 MHz is prioritized over voltage margin. |
| FMMT718 | VCEO = −100 V, hFE = 250–600, fT = 125 MHz, Cob = 3.5 pF, SC-70 package | 10 V lower VCEO, slightly higher fT, marginally lower Cob; otherwise functionally aligned for same PCB footprint. | Preferred for new designs needing tighter hFE tolerance and improved high-frequency response within same physical constraints. |
Compared with MMBT4403 and FMMT718, the FJX992TF provides the highest voltage rating (−120 V) among SC-70 PNP BJTs, making it uniquely suitable for high-rail audio and industrial analog systems where breakdown margin directly impacts reliability and signal integrity.

FAQ
What is the maximum collector-emitter voltage rating for the FJX992TF?
The FJX992TF has a guaranteed VCEO rating of −120 V at TA = 25 °C, verified under pulsed test conditions (pulse width < 300 µs, duty cycle ≤ 2.0%). This rating applies to DC and low-duty-cycle switching applications; sustained operation near this limit requires thermal derating per the RJA = 530 °C/W specification. The FJX992TF must not be operated beyond this absolute maximum to prevent junction damage.
Does the FJX992TF support Pb-free assembly processes?
Yes, the FJX992TF is explicitly marked as Pb-free and halide-free per the onsemi datasheet, compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC JS709B. It is qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles (per J-STD-020), including peak temperatures up to 260 °C, and uses matte tin plating on its SC-70 terminations. The FJX992TF is suitable for high-reliability consumer and industrial manufacturing without lead-based solder concerns.
What is the typical current gain bandwidth product (fT) of the FJX992TF?
The FJX992TF has a typical fT of 100 MHz when tested at VCE = −6 V and IC = −1 mA. This value is measured under small-signal conditions and reflects the frequency at which the short-circuit current gain drops to unity. Designers should validate fT in their actual circuit context, as bias point, temperature, and parasitic layout effects influence real-world bandwidth. The FJX992TF maintains usable gain well into the ultrasonic range, supporting clean audio reproduction.
How does the FJX992TF's hFE vary with collector current?
The FJX992TF exhibits a specified hFE range of 150 (min) at IC = −0.1 mA and 200–700 at IC = −2 mA, confirming strong gain linearity across its intended operating window. Per Figure 1 in the datasheet, hFE peaks near IC = −1 mA and remains stable between −0.5 mA and −5 mA. This behavior makes the FJX992TF especially suitable for Class-A amplifier designs where consistent gain across signal amplitude is critical to minimizing harmonic distortion.
What is the thermal resistance (RJA) of the FJX992TF in its SC-70 package?
The FJX992TF has a specified RJA of 530 °C/W when mounted on a standard FR-4 PCB measuring 76 × 114 × 1.57 mm with minimum land pattern size. This value assumes natural convection only and no additional copper pour or thermal vias. At ambient temperatures above 25 °C, power dissipation must be reduced by 1.88 mW per degree Celsius. For reliable operation above 100 mW, thermal design using the FJX992TF must account for this relatively high RJA through layout optimization or derating.
