BD232 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BD232 is an NPN Power Transistor manufactured by NXP Semiconductors. It is designed for applications requiring good linearity of hFE and a high collector-emitter breakdown voltage, rated up to 300V.

 

Key electrical specifications include a continuous collector current of 0.5A and a continuous base current of 0.25A. The transistor can dissipate up to 20W of power at 25°C case temperature. Its collector-emitter saturation voltage is a maximum of 1.0V at 150mA collector current and 15mA base current.

 

This transistor is suitable for use in power output stages and as a line driver, particularly in TV receivers. It operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C and has a thermal resistance from junction to case of 6.25°C/W.

 

The BD232 is specified with a DC current gain (hFE) ranging from 25 to 150 at 50mA collector current and 5V collector-emitter voltage. At 150mA collector current, the minimum DC current gain is 20.
