MPSA42BK is listed in the Single Bipolar Transistors range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Diotec Semiconductor. Its product description is TRANS NPN 300V 0.5A TO-92. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The MPSA42BK is a high-voltage NPN silicon transistor manufactured by Diotec Semiconductor, designed for commercial and industrial applications. It features a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 300 V and a continuous collector current (IC) of 500 mA. The device operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C with a total power dissipation (Ptot) of 625 mW. It utilizes a TO-92 package with a 1.27 mm lead pitch, identified by the suffix 'BK'.
Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required mechanical configuration. The MPSA42BK designation indicates bulk packaging with a 1.27 mm lead pitch, which differs from standard taped ammo pack configurations. Confirm compliance requirements such as AEC-Q101 if automotive standards are necessary, as these require distinct suffixes like -Q or -AQ.
Select this component when a high-voltage NPN transistor is required in a through-hole format with a compact footprint. Ensure the application voltage does not exceed the 300 V collector-emitter rating. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics and power dissipation limits relative to the ambient operating conditions to maintain reliability within the specified temperature range.
This part belongs to the MPSA series of high-voltage NPN transistors produced by Diotec Semiconductor. The series includes variants such as the MPSA44, which offers higher voltage ratings. The MPSA42 specifically targets general-purpose high-voltage applications requiring moderate current handling capabilities in a standard small-signal package.
Consult official documentation for direct substitutes. Complementary PNP transistors recommended by the manufacturer include the MPSA92.
