BC556

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The onsemi BC556 is a PNP silicon epitaxial planar transistor designed for amplifier and switching applications. It features a maximum collector current of -100 mA, a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of -65 V, and a collector-base voltage (VCBO) of -80 V. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C and has a maximum power dissipation of 500 mW. It utilizes a TO-92 through-hole package with three pins.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., BTA, BTF, BTFR) as it determines packaging type such as bulk, reel, or tape. Confirm RoHS compliance status for the exact orderable part number. Check datasheet revisions for potential parameter updates. Ensure the selected variant matches the required lead style and mounting specifications for the target PCB design.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select based on required hFE binning and packaging format. The base model serves as a reference; actual availability depends on specific suffixes like BTA or BTF. Consider thermal management due to the 500 mW dissipation limit in the TO-92 package. Verify compatibility with complementary NPN devices if used in push-pull configurations.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

The BC556 belongs to the BC556 series of PNP transistors from onsemi. It is commonly paired with NPN counterparts like the BC546 for complementary symmetry designs. The component is widely used in consumer electronics and industrial control systems requiring small-signal amplification.
