Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix when purchasing. The standard part number includes the -TP suffix for tape and reel packaging containing 2.5K pieces per reel. If halogen-free compliance is required, add the -HF suffix to the part number. Ensure procurement channels are authorized distributors to guarantee genuine parts with full traceability and adherence to MCC quality standards.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a PNP transistor capable of handling up to 5 A continuous current in a surface-mount DPAK footprint. Consider the -60 V collector-emitter voltage rating and the low saturation voltage characteristics when designing driver stages. Verify that the thermal management solution supports the 1 W power dissipation limit and the specified thermal resistance of 125°C/W under expected operating conditions.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This component belongs to the Micro Commercial Components discrete transistor portfolio, specifically designed as a plastic-encapsulated PNP device. It utilizes the DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package, which provides robust mechanical stability and thermal performance compared to smaller packages. The product line emphasizes compliance with environmental standards such as RoHS and offers options for halogen-free configurations.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other PNP transistors rated for similar current and voltage levels in the TO-252 package. Verify pinout compatibility, specifically the base-collector-emitter configuration, before substitution. Ensure replacement devices meet or exceed the -60 V collector-emitter breakdown voltage and -5 A continuous current requirements.
