Product data sheet
1. Product profile
1.1 General description
The BF1206F is a combination of two different dual gate MOSFET amplifiers with shared
source and gate2 leads.
The source and substrate are interconnected. Internal bias circuits enable Direct Current
(DC) stabilization and a very good cross-modulation performance during Automatic Gain
Control (AGC). Integrated diodes between the gates and source protect against excessive
input voltage surges. The transistor is encapsulated in a SOT666 micro-miniature plastic
package.
CAUTION
This device is sensitive to ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD). Therefore care should be taken
during transport and handling.
