BC559C Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BC559C is a PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) designed for general purpose switching and amplification applications. Manufactured by NXP Semiconductors, this transistor comes in a TO-92 (SOT54) plastic package, suitable for through-hole mounting.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a maximum collector current of 100 mA and a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 30 V. The DC current gain (hFE) for the BC559C ranges from 420 to 800 under typical test conditions (VCE = -5 V; IC = -2 mA). It also features a transition frequency (fT) of at least 100 MHz at VCB = -5 V and IE = -10 mA.

 

Thermal considerations include a maximum power dissipation of 500 mW at an ambient temperature of 25 °C and a thermal resistance from junction to ambient of 250 K/W. The operating temperature range is -65 °C to +150 °C.

 

This component is packaged in a TO-92 (SOT54) package and is designed for through-hole mounting.
