BCX56-16TF Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Nexperia BCX56-16TF is an NPN power bipolar transistor designed for medium-power applications. It is packaged in a flat lead SOT89 (SC-62) surface-mount device, offering a compact solution for space-constrained designs.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a maximum collector-emitter voltage (Vceo) of 80V, a continuous collector current (Ic) of 1A, and a peak current (Icm) of 2A. The DC current gain (hFE) is specified in the range of 100 to 250 at Ic=150mA and Vce=2V, ensuring consistent performance. The typical transition frequency (ft) is 155MHz, supporting moderate-speed switching applications. The collector-emitter saturation voltage (Vce sat) is a maximum of 500mV at Ib=50mA and Ic=500mA, contributing to low on-state losses.

 

Thermal characteristics: maximum power dissipation is 500mW for a standard FR4 PCB footprint, but can reach up to 1100mW with a larger collector pad. The junction temperature range is up to 150°C, with storage capability from -65°C to 150°C. The device is AEC-Q101 qualified, making it suitable for automotive environments.

 

The SOT89 package has body dimensions of 4.5mm x 2.5mm x 1.5mm and a lead pitch of 1.5mm. The flat lead termination style is suitable for standard SMD soldering processes. Typical applications include linear voltage regulators, MOSFET drivers, low-side switches, power management, and general-purpose amplifiers.
