BCP56 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Nexperia BCP56-Q series comprises NPN medium power transistors housed in a compact SOT223 (SC-73) surface-mounted device (SMD) plastic package. These transistors are designed for applications requiring high collector current capability and high power dissipation. Key electrical characteristics include a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 80V and a continuous collector current (IC) of 1A, with a peak collector current (ICM) of 2A for single pulses up to 1ms.

 

With multiple current gain selections available (BCP56-Q: 63-250, BCP56-10-Q: 63-160, BCP56-16-Q: 100-250 at VCE=2V, IC=150mA), these transistors offer design flexibility. They are qualified according to AEC-Q101, making them suitable for automotive applications. The SOT223 package facilitates surface mounting and provides a good thermal path, with power dissipation ratings varying based on PCB mounting pad size, up to 1.35W.

 

Typical applications for the BCP56-Q series include linear voltage regulators, MOSFET drivers, low-side switches, power management circuits, amplifiers, and battery-driven devices. Their robust design and performance characteristics make them a reliable choice for various electronic designs.
