BCP56 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Nexperia BCP56-Q series comprises NPN medium power transistors housed in a SOT-223 (SC-73) surface-mounted device (SMD) plastic package. These transistors are designed for applications requiring high collector current capability and power dissipation. Key electrical specifications include a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 80 V and a continuous collector current (IC) of 1 A, with a peak collector current (ICM) of 2 A for single pulses up to 1 ms.

 

With multiple current gain selections available, the BCP56 series offers flexibility for various circuit designs. The device is qualified according to AEC-Q101, making it suitable for automotive applications. Typical applications include linear voltage regulators, MOSFET drivers, low-side switches, power management circuits, amplifiers, and battery-driven devices.

 

The SOT-223 package is designed for surface mounting and features an increased heatsink. The transistor operates within a wide ambient temperature range and has a maximum junction temperature of 150 °C.
