BSR16/LF1R

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The BSR16/LF1R is a PNP bipolar junction transistor manufactured by NXP USA Inc. It is designed for surface mount applications and housed in the industry-standard SOT-23 (TO-236AB) plastic package. The device features a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 60 V and a continuous collector current rating of 0.6 A. It serves as the PNP complement to the BSR13 and BSR14 NPN transistors, offering high current capability and low voltage operation suitable for switching applications.

Single Bipolar Transistors Feature Summary

• High current handling capability with a maximum rating of 600 mA
• Low voltage operation optimized for switching applications
• Surface mount construction in standard SOT-23 plastic packaging

Single Bipolar Transistors Applications

• General purpose switching circuits
• Complementary pairing with NPN transistors in amplifier stages
• Low voltage signal processing applications

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix LF1R against the manufacturer's official documentation to confirm tape and reel packaging specifications. Ensure the component matches the required SOT-23 footprint and electrical ratings for the target design. Cross-reference the datasheet revision history to account for any updates in legal definitions or parameter limits issued by NXP Semiconductors.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when a PNP switching transistor with 60 V breakdown and 0.6 A current capacity is required in a compact surface mount form factor. It is appropriate for designs needing a direct complement to the BSR13 or BSR14 NPN devices. Consider thermal management requirements associated with the small SOT-23 package during high-current operation.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This part belongs to the BSR series of single bipolar transistors from NXP Semiconductors. The series includes complementary NPN variants such as the BSR13 and BSR14. The BSR16/LF1R specifically addresses the need for a robust PNP counterpart in dual-transistor configurations, maintaining consistent performance characteristics within the family.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the BSR13 and BSR14 when used in complementary pairs, though these are NPN types. For identical PNP functionality, verify cross-references with other manufacturers offering SOT-23 packaged PNP transistors rated at 60 V and 0.6 A.
