SS8050

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The MDD SS8050 is an NPN silicon epitaxial transistor designed for surface-mount applications. It features a collector current of 1.5A and operates with a collector-emitter voltage of 25V and a collector-base voltage of 40V. The device provides a DC current gain (hFE) ranging from 120 to 400, depending on the specific rank. It is housed in a SOT-23 package with a maximum power dissipation of 0.3W and a junction temperature rating up to +150°C.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part code against the specification sheet, as suffixes indicate case codes and marking variations. Confirm RoHS III compliance status and check for halogen-free certification requirements before finalizing orders. Ensure the requested hFE rank matches the design specifications, as performance varies across different gain categories.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when a small-form-factor NPN transistor is required for high-current switching or amplification. Consider the thermal resistance and power dissipation limits relative to the PCB layout. Verify that the operating voltage does not exceed the 25V collector-emitter breakdown limit under all expected circuit conditions.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This component belongs to the SS8 series of SMD plastic-encapsulated transistors manufactured by MDD Diodes. It serves as the NPN counterpart to the SS8550 PNP transistor, allowing for complementary pairing in electronic designs. The series is engineered to cross-reference major competitor parts while maintaining standard industry pinouts.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

The SS8550 is the documented complementary PNP type. Cross-reference with original manufacturer part numbers listed in the specification sheet for equivalent sourcing options.
