2SC4097-P-TP

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The MCC 2SC4097-P-TP is an NPN silicon epitaxial transistor housed in a SOT-323 surface-mount package. It features a continuous collector current of 500 mA and a power dissipation rating of 200 mW. Key voltage ratings include a collector-emitter breakdown voltage (VCEO) of 32 V, a collector-base breakdown voltage (VCBO) of 40 V, and an emitter-base breakdown voltage (VEBO) of 5 V. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C with a thermal resistance of 625°C/W. Electrical characteristics specify a transition frequency (fT) of 250 MHz at 20 mA, and DC current gain (hFE) ranges from 82 to 390 depending on the classification rank.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix matches the required packaging configuration. The standard tape and reel quantity is 3,000 pieces per reel. Confirm the specific hFE bin (P, Q, or R) if precise gain thresholds are necessary for the design. Ensure the component meets the required RoHS and halogen-free specifications for the target assembly process.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact SOT-323 footprint is required for NPN switching or amplification. The 500 mA collector current capability supports moderate load driving. Consider the 32 V collector-emitter voltage limit for circuit protection requirements. Evaluate the hFE classification against the base drive capabilities to ensure adequate saturation or linear operation margins.
