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.

1.2 Features and benefits
Two low noise gain controlled amplifiers in a single package
Superior cross-modulation performance during AGC
High forward transfer admittance
High forward transfer admittance to input capacitance ratio
Suited for 3 volt applications
1.3 Applications
Gain controlled low noise amplifiers for Very High Frequency (VHF) and Ultra High
Frequency (UHF) applications with 3 V supply voltage, such as digital and analog
television tuners
