2SD1691-G-BP

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The MCC 2SD1691-G-BP is an NPN plastic-encapsulated silicon transistor designed for high-power applications. It features a collector current rating of 5.0 A and a collector-emitter voltage of 60 V. The device offers low collector-emitter saturation voltage, typically 0.3 V at 2.0 A, and supports up to 20 W power dissipation with a heatsink. The junction temperature range spans from -55°C to +150°C. The 'G' suffix indicates a DC current gain (hFE) classification of 200 to 400 when tested at 2.0 A. It utilizes a TO-220 package.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct hFE binning and compliance attributes. Confirm that the '-BP' designation corresponds to bulk packaging as specified in the datasheet. Ensure procurement channels are authorized distributors to guarantee part authenticity and traceability. Check for any recent product change notices regarding pinout or electrical characteristics before finalizing orders.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when circuit requirements demand a robust NPN transistor capable of handling continuous currents up to 5.0 A. The low saturation voltage makes it suitable for minimizing conduction losses in power switching applications. Verify that the thermal management design can support the 20 W dissipation rating at the expected operating ambient temperature. Consider the hFE range of 200-400 for base drive calculations to ensure proper saturation.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This component belongs to the Micro Commercial Components (MCC) line of plastic-encapsulated transistors. It is part of a family of NPN silicon devices optimized for power applications. The TO-220 package provides mechanical stability and facilitates heat sinking. MCC designs these parts to meet standard industrial reliability requirements, including UL 94 V-0 flammability ratings for the epoxy material.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other NPN power transistors featuring similar 5.0 A current and 60 V voltage ratings. Verify pinout compatibility (Emitter, Collector, Base) if substituting directly into existing PCB layouts. Ensure replacement parts match the required hFE gain range and saturation voltage specifications to maintain circuit performance.
