BCP56-16 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BCP56-16 is an NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT) manufactured by STMicroelectronics. It features a maximum collector-emitter breakdown voltage (Vceo) of 80V and a continuous collector current (Ic) rating of 1A. The device can dissipate up to 1.6W of power, making it suitable for moderate power switching and amplification applications.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 100 at 150mA collector current and 2V collector-emitter voltage, and a low collector-emitter saturation voltage of 500mV at 500mA collector current and 50mA base current. The maximum junction operating temperature is 150°C.

 

The BCP56-16 is housed in a surface-mount SOT-223 package (also designated TO-261-4, TO-261AA), which is suitable for automated assembly and space-constrained designs. It is commonly used in general purpose switching, relay drivers, and linear amplifier stages.
