BC550CBU Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BC550CBU is a general-purpose NPN bipolar junction transistor manufactured by On Semiconductor. It is designed for low-power amplification and switching applications.

 

Key electrical specifications include a collector-emitter breakdown voltage (Vceo) of 45V, a continuous collector current (Ic) rating of 100mA, and a power dissipation (Pd) of 500mW. The device offers a DC current gain (hFE) of 420 minimum at 2mA collector current and 5V Vce, and a transition frequency (ft) of 300MHz. The maximum collector-emitter saturation voltage (Vce(sat)) is 600mV at 100mA base current.

 

The transistor is housed in a through-hole TO-92-3 package (TO-226-3, TO-92-3 (TO-226AA)), suitable for manual assembly and prototyping. The maximum junction temperature is 150°C.
