2N5486RLRP

Overview

The onsemi 2N5486RLRP is an N-channel silicon Junction Field-Effect Transistor (JFET) designed for VHF and UHF amplifier applications. It operates in depletion mode within a TO-92 (TO-226AA) through-hole package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum drain current of 30 mA, a feedback capacitance (Crss) of 1 pF, and a gate-source breakdown voltage of -25 V. The device supports a maximum operating temperature of 150 °C.

Feature Summary

• Optimized for high-frequency amplification in the VHF and UHF bands
• Low feedback capacitance to minimize signal coupling effects
• Single-element configuration for compact circuit integration

Applications

• VHF/UHF RF amplifier stages
• High-frequency small-signal processing circuits
• RF front-end modules requiring low noise characteristics

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'RLRP' against official datasheets to confirm reel packaging and RoHS compliance status. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required tape-and-reel quantity. Confirm lead times with authorized distributors as availability may vary by region.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits requiring an N-channel JFET with low input capacitance for frequencies up to the UHF band. Verify that the 30 mA drain current limit and -25 V gate-source voltage ratings align with the system's biasing requirements and thermal constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 2N548x series of N-channel JFETs manufactured by onsemi. These devices are commonly used in radio frequency applications where low noise and stable gain are critical. The RLRP suffix typically indicates a specific tape-and-reel packaging format for automated assembly.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the 2N5484 and 2N5485 from various manufacturers, provided they meet the same pinout and electrical specifications. Verify that alternative parts offer comparable feedback capacitance and transconductance values for direct replacement.
