MCH4013-TL-E

Overview

The MCH4013-TL-E is an NPN epitaxial planar silicon transistor designed for UHF to X band low-noise amplifier and oscillator applications. It features a high cut-off frequency of 22.5 GHz typ at VCE=3V and a forward transfer gain of 16 dB typ at f=2GHz. The device operates with a collector current up to 15 mA and a collector-to-emitter voltage of 3.5 V. Packaged in MCPH4 (SOT-343), it provides a noise figure as low as 1.5 dB at 2 GHz, making it suitable for high-frequency signal processing.

Feature Summary

• High cut-off frequency optimized for UHF to X band operations
• Low noise figure performance for sensitive receiver stages
• High forward transfer gain at 2 GHz frequencies
• Compact MCPH4 surface-mount package design

Applications

• UHF to X band low-noise amplifiers
• RF oscillator circuits
• High-frequency signal processing modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the component origin carefully, as onsemi acquired Sanyo Semiconductor assets. Confirm that the datasheet references Sanyo specifications while ensuring the physical marking matches the TL code. Check for lead-free compliance status and verify the reel quantity of 3,000 pieces per manufacturer standard packaging requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this transistor when designing circuits requiring operation in the UHF to X band range with minimal signal degradation. Ensure the biasing conditions stay within the absolute maximum ratings, specifically limiting VCEO to 3.5 V and IC to 15 mA. Consider the MCPH4 package dimensions for PCB layout constraints and thermal dissipation requirements under continuous operation.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MCH4013 series of NPN epitaxial planar silicon transistors originally manufactured by Sanyo Semiconductor. The part is now managed under the onsemi portfolio following corporate acquisitions. It serves as a specialized RF discrete device distinct from general-purpose logic or power switching components.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Designers should consult official cross-reference lists or contact the manufacturer directly for equivalent devices meeting identical RF performance criteria.
