Alternatives to NXP BFT92

NXP BFT92 and its qualified second sources, compared on form/fit/function, stock, lifecycle and price — the same checks Parter runs inside a BOM.

AI Summary

BFT92 by NXP: Bipolar RF Transistor, PNP, 15 V, 5 GHz, 300 mW, 25 mA, SOT 23.

The BFT93 is the closest same-family sibling to the obsolete BFT92, sharing its high-frequency RF behavior and package style. It has a slightly lower voltage limit of -12 V which must be verified against the design's supply rails. This device is also obsolete but may be sourced from legacy channels.

  • High transition frequency (5 GHz) perfectly matches the RF performance of the BFT92.
  • Exact pinout compatibility (1=Base, 2=Emitter, 3=Collector) with identical SOT-23 package.
  • Similar low-noise characteristics and feedback capacitance (~0.7 pF).
  • Lower collector-emitter breakdown voltage of -12 V vs -15 V.
  • Like the BFT92, this part is obsolete and not recommended for new long-term designs.

The BFT92W represents the same underlying silicon die but packaged in a smaller SOT-323 (SC-70) housing. It maintains the original breakdown voltage rating and high-frequency operation but requires a PCB layout footprint update. This sibling part is also discontinued.

  • Matches the original absolute maximum breakdown voltage (VCEO = -15 V).
  • Uses the same silicon die architecture, delivering a very high 4 GHz transition frequency.
  • Extremely similar low-noise figure and gain performance.
  • Footprint mismatch (SOT-323 vs SOT-23) requires PCB land pattern modification.
  • Part is obsolete and may suffer from sourcing limitations.

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.

  1. All your BOM, at once

    Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.

  2. Hear about problems before they hit production

    Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.

  3. Qualified replacements in minutes, not days

    Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.
