Product details
Overview
NSVMMBT5088LT3G from onsemi is an NPN silicon low-noise transistor in SOT-23 package, rated for VCEO = 30 V, IC = 50 mA, and fT = 50 MHz, with hFE ≥ 300 at IC = 100 µA and noise figure ≤ 3.0 dB at 1 kHz - used in RF preamplifier stages of AM/FM receivers and low-level analog signal conditioning.
For engineers reviewing the NSVMMBT5088LT3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, low 4.0 pF Ccb, 10 pF Ceb, 50 MHz fT, and guaranteed hFE minimum across IC = 100 µA–10 mA.
Technical Context
This device operates as a general-purpose NPN bipolar junction transistor optimized for low-noise amplification in small-signal linear applications. Its design emphasizes high current gain (hFE up to 1200), low capacitance (Ccb ≤ 4.0 pF, Ceb ≤ 10 pF), and stable noise performance (NF ≤ 3.0 dB) at 1 kHz with RS = 10 kΩ.
Thermal behavior is characterized by RJA = 556 °C/W on FR-5 board and 417 °C/W on alumina substrate, supporting operation from −55 °C to +150 °C. It features Pb-free, halogen-free construction and meets RoHS compliance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 30 V - maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; defines safe operating range in common-emitter amplifier configurations. |
| IC | 50 mA - continuous collector current limit; sets upper bound for biasing in low-power analog stages. |
| fT | 50 MHz - current-gain bandwidth product; enables stable amplification up to mid-VHF frequencies with adequate gain margin. |
| hFE (min) | 300 at IC = 100 µA - ensures predictable DC bias stability in high-impedance input networks. |
| NF | ≤ 3.0 dB at 1 kHz, RS = 10 kΩ - quantifies low-noise capability critical for front-end signal recovery in sensitive receivers. |
| Ccb | ≤ 4.0 pF - collector-base capacitance; minimizes Miller effect and maintains bandwidth in common-emitter topologies. |
| PD (FR-5) | 225 mW - total dissipation on standard PCB; determines thermal derating requirements for sustained operation. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23 (TO-236) surface-mount package, 2.90 × 1.30 × 1.00 mm, 3-pin configuration per Style 6: Pin 1 = Base, Pin 2 = Emitter, Pin 3 = Collector.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Base | Control electrode | Accepts base current to modulate collector-emitter conduction; requires stable bias network for low-noise operation. |
| 2 - Emitter | Current source terminal | Provides reference node for emitter degeneration; often tied to ground or bypassed for AC signal path integrity. |
| 3 - Collector | Output current terminal | Delivers amplified output current; connects to load resistor or next stage with minimal parasitic capacitance. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise NPN transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBT5088LT1G | Same die, identical electrical specs, but shipped in 3,000-piece tape-and-reel vs. NSVMMBT5088LT3G's 10,000-piece reel. | No functional difference; suited for lower-volume prototyping or pilot production runs. | Select MMBT5088LT1G when smaller reel size aligns with assembly line feed requirements or inventory turnover targets. |
| BC846B,215 | Higher hFE (200–450), lower VCEO (65 V), higher Ccb (4.5 pF), no AEC-Q101 qualification. | Not automotive-qualified; better suited for general-purpose amplification where noise < 3.0 dB is not required. | Choose BC846B,215 only for non-automotive industrial or consumer applications where cost and availability outweigh noise and qualification needs. |
Compared with NSVMMBT5088LT3G, MMBT5088LT1G offers identical performance in a smaller reel format, while BC846B,215 trades AEC-Q101 compliance and ultra-low noise for broader hFE distribution and higher voltage rating - making NSVMMBT5088LT3G the preferred choice for automotive and high-SNR analog signal paths.
