BCX56-16TX Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BCX56-16TX is an NPN bipolar junction transistor from Nexperia, part of the BCX56T series. It is designed for medium-power applications requiring a collector-emitter voltage of up to 80 V and a collector current of up to 1 A, with peak current capability of 2 A. The DC current gain (hFE) is specified between 100 and 250 at VCE = 2 V and IC = 150 mA, making it suitable for linear amplification and switching. The transistor is housed in a SOT-89 (SC-62) surface-mount package, offering a compact footprint for space-constrained designs. It supports a maximum power dissipation of 500 mW on a standard FR4 PCB, with higher dissipation achievable with larger copper pads. The device is AEC-Q101 qualified, indicating suitability for automotive applications. Typical applications include linear voltage regulators, MOSFET drivers, low-side switches, and general power management. The BCX56-16TX is the complement to the PNP BCX53-16T.
