FH102A-TR-E Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FH102A-TR-E is a dual NPN RF transistor manufactured by onsemi, designed for high-frequency applications up to 7GHz. This component operates at a maximum collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 10V with a maximum power dissipation of 500mW and is housed in a 6-MCP surface mount package. The FH102A-TR-E is classified as an obsolete product, necessitating identification of active equivalent components for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Substitute parts must maintain functional compatibility across RF frequency ranges, power handling capabilities, and surface mount packaging standards.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the FH102A-TR-E is determined by the following critical parameters:

Structural Compatibility: Both the main part and substitute must be dual NPN transistor configurations in surface mount packages compatible with SOT-363 footprints.

Electrical Performance Envelope: Substitute parts must operate within or exceed the frequency range (7GHz minimum transition frequency), voltage ratings (10V minimum collector-emitter breakdown), and current handling (70mA maximum collector current). Power dissipation capability must support 500mW operation.

Thermal Characteristics: Operating temperature rating of 150°C (TJ) must be maintained.

Packaging and Moisture Sensitivity: Surface mount configuration with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) ensures compatibility with standard assembly processes.

The BFS483H6327XTSA1 meets these substitution criteria through equivalent dual NPN architecture, enhanced electrical specifications, and compatible SOT-363 surface mount packaging.
