1. Product profile
1.1 General description
The BF1205C is a combination of two dual gate MOS-FET amplifiers with shared source
and gate 2 leads and an integr ated switch. The integrated switch is op erated by the gate 1
bias of amplifier b.
The source and substrate are interconnected. Internal bias circuits enable DC stabilization
and a very good cross-modulation performance during AGC. Integrated diodes between
the gates and so urce protect against excessive input voltage surges. Th e transistor h as a
SOT363 micro-miniature plastic package.
1.2 Features and benefits
T wo low noise gain controlled amplifiers in a sing le package; one with a fully integra ted
bias and one with a partly integrated bias
Internal switch to save external components
Superior cross -m o dulation performa nce during AGC
High forward transfer admittance
High forward transfer admittance to input capacitance ratio.
1.3 Applications
Gain controlled low noise amplifiers for VHF and UHF applications with 5 V supply
voltage
digital and analog television tuners
professional communication equipment.

12.2 Definitions
Draft — The document is a draft version only. The content is still under
internal review and subject to formal approval, which may result in
modifications or additions. NXP Semiconductors does not give any
representations or warranties as to the accuracy or completeness of
information included herein and shall have no liab ility for the consequences of
use of such information.
Short data sheet — A short data sheet is an extract from a full data sheet
with the same product type number(s) and tit le. A short data sh eet is intended
for quick reference only and shou ld not be rel ied u pon to cont ain det ailed and
full information. For detailed and full information see the relevant full data
sheet, which is available on request via the local NXP Semiconductors sales
office. In case of any inconsistency or conflict with the short data sheet, the
full data sheet shall pre vail.
Product specificat io nThe information and data provided in a Product
data sheet shall define the specification of the product as agreed between
NXP Semiconductors and its customer, unless NXP Semiconductors and
customer have explicitly agreed otherwise in writing. In no event however,
shall an agreement be valid in which the NXP Semiconductors product is
deemed to off er functions and qualities beyond those described in the
Product data sheet.
12.3 Disclaimers
Limited warr a nty and liability — Information in this document is believed to
be accurate and reliable. However, NXP Semiconductors does not give any
representations or warranties, expressed or implied, as to the accuracy or
completeness of such information and shall have no liability for the
consequences of use of such information.
In no event shall NXP Semiconductors be liable for any indirect , incidental,
punitive, special or consequ ential damages (including - wit hout limitatio n - lost
profits, lost savings, business interruption, costs related to the removal or
replacement of any products or rework charges) whether or not such
damages are based on tort (including negligence), warranty, breach of
contract or any other legal theory.
Notwithstanding any damages that customer might incur for any reason
whatsoever, NXP Semiconduct ors’ aggregate and cumulati ve liability toward s
customer for the products described herein shall be limited in accordance
with the Terms and conditions of commercial sale of NXP Semicondu ctors.
Right to make changes — NXP Semiconductors reserves the right to make
changes to information published in this document, including without
limitation specifications and product descriptions, at any time and without
notice. This document supersedes and replaces all informa tion supplied prior
to the publication hereof .
Suitability for use — NXP Semiconductors products are not designed,
authorized or warranted to be suit able for use in life support, life-critical or
safety-critical systems or equipment, nor in applications where failure or
malfunction of an NXP Semiconductors pro duct can reasonably be expected
to result in perso nal injury, death or severe property or environmental
damage. NXP Semiconductors accepts no liab ility for inclusion and/or use of
NXP Semiconductors products in such equipment or applications and
therefore such inclusion and/or use is at the customer’s own risk.
Applications — Applications that are described herein for any of these
products are for illustrative purposes only. NXP Semiconductors makes no
representation or warranty tha t such application s will be suitable for the
specified use without further testing or modification.
Customers are responsible for the design and ope ration of their applications
and products using NXP Semiconductors product s, and NXP Semiconductors
accepts no liability for any assistance with applications or customer product
design. It is customer’s sole responsibility to determine whether the NXP
Semiconductors product is suit able and fit for the custome r’s applications and
products planned, as well as fo r the planned application and use of
customer’s third party customer(s). Customers should provide appropriate
design and operating safeguards to minimize the risks associated with their
applications and products.
NXP Semiconductors does not accept any liabili ty related to any default,
damage, costs or problem which is based on any weakness or default in the
customer’s applications or products, or the application or use by customer’s
third party customer(s). Customer is responsible for doing all necessa ry
testing for th e customer’s applications and products using NXP
Semiconductors products in order to avoid a default of the applications and
the products or of the application or use by customer’s third party
customer(s). NXP does not accept any liability in this respect.
Limiting values — Stress above one or more limiting values (as defined in
the Absolute Maximum Ratings System of IEC 60134) will cause permanent
damage to the device. Limiting values are stress ratings only and (proper)
operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those given in
the Recommended operating conditions section (if present) or the
Characteristics sections of this document is not warranted. Constant or
repeated exposure to limiting values will permanent ly and irreversibly affect
the quality and reliability of the device.
Terms and conditions of commercial sale — NXP Semiconductors
products are sold subject to the general terms and conditions of commercial
sale, as published at http://www.nxp.com/profile/terms, unless otherwise
agreed in a valid written individua l agreement. In case an individual
agreement is concluded only the ter ms and conditions of the respective
agreement shall apply. NXP Semiconductors hereby expressly objects to
applying the customer’s general terms and conditions with regard to the
purchase of NXP Semiconductors products by customer.
No offer to sell or license — Nothing i n this document may be interpreted or
construed as an of fer t o sell product s that is open for accept ance or t he grant,
conveyance or implication of any license under any copyrights, patents or
other industrial or intellectual property rights.
Export control — This document as well as the item(s) described herein
may be subject to export control regulatio ns. Export might require a prior
authorization from national authorities.
