2PB1424,115

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The Nexperia 2PB1424,115 is a PNP low VCEsat Breakthrough In Small Signal (BISS) transistor housed in an SOT89 (SC-62/TO-243) surface-mounted plastic package. It features a collector-emitter voltage of -20 V and a continuous collector current rating of -3 A, with a peak pulse current capability of -5 A. The device achieves a typical collector-emitter saturation voltage of -0.2 V at -2 A collector current and -0.1 A base current. Thermal resistance from junction to ambient is specified at 250 K/W in free air and 62 K/W on a ceramic PCB.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required packaging configuration before procurement. Confirm that the component status remains active within the manufacturer's portfolio. Ensure design compliance with absolute maximum ratings to prevent permanent damage. Check for any recent revision updates to the product data sheet prior to finalizing the bill of materials.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints require a compact SMD solution with moderate power handling capabilities. The low saturation voltage makes it suitable for applications where minimizing conduction losses is critical. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics relative to the chosen PCB material and footprint size during the initial design phase.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This part belongs to the BISS transistor family designed for small signal switching applications. It serves as the PNP complement to the N-channel 2PD2150 device. The SOT89 package provides a collector pad optimized for efficient heat transfer, distinguishing it from smaller signal transistor packages while maintaining a compact footprint.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

The official NPN complement is the 2PD2150. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameters when substituting with other PNP transistors from different manufacturers.
