Overview
The Microchip Technology 2N5487-1 is a small signal NPN silicon bipolar junction transistor designed for general-purpose switching and amplification applications. It features a collector current rating of 5A and a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 80V. The device is constructed as a single-element component utilizing silicon semiconductor technology. It is housed in the TO-205AA package, which provides a robust mechanical structure suitable for through-hole mounting. This component serves as a reliable discrete solution for medium-power electronic circuits requiring stable NPN transistor performance.
Feature Summary
- Utilizes silicon material for stable NPN operation
- Supports high collector current capacity for power handling
- Provides adequate voltage breakdown for standard circuit protection
Applications
- General-purpose switching circuits
- Medium-power amplification stages
- Discrete transistor logic applications
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific manufacturer source when ordering, as the 2N5487-1 designation has been associated with multiple vendors including Microchip Technology and New Jersey Semi-Conductor Products. Ensure the datasheet matches the required electrical characteristics, particularly the 5A current and 80V voltage ratings, to confirm compatibility with your design specifications before finalizing procurement.
Selection Notes
Select this component for designs requiring an NPN silicon transistor capable of handling 5A currents with an 80V breakdown voltage. The TO-205AA package is appropriate for applications needing durable through-hole mounting. Consider thermal management requirements due to the power dissipation capabilities inherent in this package style and current rating.
Part Context
The 2N5487-1 belongs to the category of small signal bipolar transistors. While the part number suggests a military or specific grade variant due to the suffix, it functions fundamentally as a standard NPN silicon BJT. It is distinct from JFET variants sometimes listed under similar numbers and digital potentiometer development tools found in broader searches.
Replacement Considerations
Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify pinout and electrical limits against potential alternatives such as other TO-205AA packaged NPN transistors with matching 5A/80V ratings.
