BC558 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BC558 is a PNP bipolar junction transistor manufactured by NTE Electronics. It is designed for general-purpose switching and amplification applications in through-hole circuits.

 

Key electrical specifications include a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 30V, a maximum collector current of 100mA, and a maximum power dissipation of 500mW. The transistor offers a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 110 at Ic=2mA and Vce=5V, and a maximum Vce saturation of 650mV at Ib=5mA and Ic=100mA. It has a typical transition frequency of 150MHz.

 

The BC558 is housed in a TO-92-3 package (TO-226-3 / TO-226AA) and is intended for through-hole mounting. This package is commonly used for small-signal transistors in low-power circuits.

 

Typical applications include signal amplification, switching circuits, and general-purpose electronic designs where a PNP transistor with these ratings is required.
