About the NXP Semiconductors BFU5 Memory Series

The NXP Semiconductors BFU5 Memory Series series groups 4 related part numbers, each listed with full specifications, a datasheet where available, and an RFQ option. Every variant in the range shares a common FET type of NPN, mounting of Surface Mount and operating temperature of -40°C ~ 150°C (TJ). Variants differ by case, current - collector (Ic) and DC current gain (hFE) (Min) @ ic, vce, so you can match the exact case your application requires using the selection guide below. All listed NXP Semiconductors BFU5 Memory Series part numbers are active and orderable.
