BD241C-S

Overview

The BD241C-S is an NPN power transistor manufactured by Bourns Inc., housed in a TO-220 package. It features a collector-emitter voltage rating of 100V and a continuous collector current capacity of 3A. The device has a maximum power dissipation of 40W. Key electrical characteristics include a collector-emitter saturation voltage of 1.2V at 600mA base current and 3A collector current. This component is designed for high-power switching and amplification applications requiring robust performance within these specified limits.

Feature Summary

NPN bipolar junction transistor configuration
High current handling capability up to 3A
Power dissipation rated at 40W
TO-220 surface-mount compatible package

Applications

Power switching circuits
Amplifier stages
Industrial control systems
Audio equipment output stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the obsolete status of this specific part number before procurement, as it may no longer be manufactured by Bourns Inc. Confirm availability through authorized distributors or check for direct substitutes if production continuity is required. Ensure the replacement component matches all critical electrical parameters including voltage, current, and package dimensions to maintain circuit integrity.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring NPN power switching with 100V blocking capability and 3A current handling. Consider thermal management requirements due to the 40W power dissipation rating. Verify that the TO-220 package fits the mechanical constraints of the design. Evaluate alternative sources if the original manufacturer discontinues this specific suffix variant.

Part Context

This component belongs to the general category of single bipolar transistors. It is distinct from Bourns' primary product lines such as resistors, sensors, and connectors. The BD241C-S represents a legacy power transistor offering, often superseded by newer generations or direct equivalents from other manufacturers like STMicroelectronics.
