The Nexperia BCP55-16F is an NPN medium power transistor housed in a SOT223 (SC-73) surface-mounted device plastic package. It features a collector-emitter voltage of 60 V and a continuous collector current of 1 A, with a peak pulsed current capability of 2 A. The device offers three distinct DC current gain (hFE) selections; the -16 variant specifies a minimum hFE of 100 at IC = 150 mA and VCE = 2 V. Total power dissipation reaches up to 1.35 W on an FR4 PCB with a 6 cm² collector mounting pad. Transition frequency is typically 180 MHz.
Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required binning for DC current gain. Confirm the package type corresponds to the SOT223 footprint requirements. Ensure the component status aligns with production availability rather than development or preliminary stages. Check for any automotive qualification needs, as this series is not explicitly qualified for such use.
Select the BCP55-16 variant when a guaranteed minimum DC current gain of 100 is required at moderate collector currents. Evaluate thermal resistance values against the specific PCB copper area available for heat sinking. Consider the transition frequency limits if high-speed switching performance is critical for the application timing.
This component belongs to the BCP55 series of NPN medium power transistors designed for general-purpose amplification and switching tasks. The series utilizes a small SMD plastic package to facilitate automated assembly while maintaining adequate thermal performance through an exposed collector pad.
