BD136-6-BP

Overview

The BD136-6-BP is a PNP epitaxial silicon transistor manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. It features a collector-emitter voltage of -45 V and a continuous collector current of -1.5 A. The device operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. DC current gain ranges from 40 to 100 for the '6' classification. Total device dissipation is 1.25 W at 25°C ambient, with a thermal resistance junction-to-case of 100°C/W.

Feature Summary

• PNP polarity configuration suitable for linear and switching applications
• Complementary pairing available with NPN BD135 series transistors
• Lead-free finish compliant with RoHS standards

Applications

• Linear amplifier circuits
• Switching regulator designs
• General-purpose power amplification

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized MCC distributors or direct procurement channels. Confirm the presence of the BP suffix indicates standard bulk packaging and RoHS compliance. Ensure ordering specifications match the required hFE binning for the specific application circuit requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a -45 V collector-emitter rating and -1.5 A current capacity are required. The BD136-6-BP offers a moderate current gain range of 40 to 100. Consider the complementary BD135-6-BP for push-pull configurations requiring matched performance characteristics in similar operating conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the BD136/138/140 family of medium-power transistors designed for versatile electronic applications. The BD136 variant specifically provides the lowest voltage rating within the group at -45 V, while maintaining identical current handling and package dimensions as its higher-voltage counterparts.

Replacement Considerations

BD135-6-BP serves as the direct NPN complement. BD138-6-BP and BD140-6-BP offer higher voltage ratings but share identical pinouts and current capabilities.
