BCP53 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BCP53 is a PNP silicon epitaxial transistor from On Semiconductor, specifically designed for audio amplifier applications. It offers a high collector current capability of 1.5 Amps and a collector-emitter voltage rating of -80V, making it suitable for medium power amplification and switching circuits.

 

The device is housed in the SOT-223 surface mount package, which features formed leads that absorb thermal stress during soldering, eliminating the risk of die damage. The package can be soldered using wave or reflow processes. The BCP53 has a maximum power dissipation of 1.5W at 25°C ambient temperature and an operating junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a DC current gain (hFE) of 40 minimum at 150mA and 2V, and a collector-emitter saturation voltage of 500mV maximum at 500mA and 50mA base current. The NPN complement is the BCP56. Pb-Free package options are available for environmentally sensitive applications.
