BC54PA,115

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The BC54PA,115 is a silicon NPN single bipolar junction transistor (BJT) manufactured by Nexperia. It utilizes the DFN-2020-3 package (SOT1061/HUSON). Key electrical parameters include a maximum DC collector current of 1 A and a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 45 V. The device features a collector-base voltage (VCBO) of 45 V and an emitter-base voltage (VEBO) of 5 V. Power dissipation is rated at 420 mW, with a transition frequency (fT) of 180 MHz. The minimum DC current gain (hFE) is 63, and the collector-emitter saturation voltage is 500 mV. Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to +150°C.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '115' corresponds to the required reel packaging configuration during ordering. Confirm that the DFN-2020-3 footprint matches the target PCB design. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if applicable to the end product. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against official Nexperia documentation to avoid substitution errors.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact NPN BJT with 45 V rating and 1 A current capacity is required. The DFN-2020-3 package offers a smaller footprint compared to traditional SOT packages. Consider the 420 mW power dissipation limit for thermal management in the final assembly. Verify hFE binning requirements for specific gain applications.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This component belongs to the BC54PA series of NPN transistors designed for surface-mount technology. It serves as a modern alternative to through-hole equivalents, providing similar electrical characteristics in a significantly reduced physical size. The HUSON package variant integrates standard BJT functionality with enhanced mounting density for contemporary electronic devices.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

BC54A variants may offer different gain ranges but share similar electrical ratings. Check pinout compatibility before substituting with other DFN-2020-3 packaged transistors.
