Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm exact packaging and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required RoHS compliance status and marking codes for your assembly process. Cross-reference the part number with onsemi's current product availability lists to confirm active manufacturing status before finalizing procurement plans.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when a single NPN BJT with 3 A continuous current capability and 60 V breakdown voltage is required. The SOT-223 package provides a balance between thermal dissipation and board space efficiency compared to smaller packages. Consider the 1 W power dissipation limit and thermal resistance characteristics when designing heat management solutions for the target application environment.
