The recommended PCB footprint for the MBRF20200CT-LJ is a standard SOT23 package footprint with a minimum pad size of 0.8mm x 0.8mm and a thermal pad size of 2.5mm x 2.5mm.
To ensure proper biasing, connect the anode to a voltage source through a current-limiting resistor, and the cathode to ground through a bypass capacitor. The recommended bias voltage is 2.5V to 5.5V.
The maximum allowable power dissipation for the MBRF20200CT-LJ is 250mW. Exceeding this limit may cause the device to overheat and reduce its lifespan.
The MBRF20200CT-LJ is rated for operation up to 125°C. However, it's recommended to derate the power dissipation by 50% for every 10°C above 85°C to ensure reliable operation.
To prevent ESD damage, handle the MBRF20200CT-LJ with an anti-static wrist strap or mat, and ensure that all equipment and tools are properly grounded. Avoid touching the device's pins or leads.
