BD678 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BD678 is a PNP Darlington transistor from STMicroelectronics designed for medium-power switching and amplification applications. It features a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 60V and a continuous collector current of 4A, making it suitable for driving loads in motor control, relay drivers, and power supply circuits.

 

With a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 750 at 1.5A collector current and 3V VCE, the BD678 provides high current amplification. The collector-emitter saturation voltage is typically 2.5V at 30mA base current and 1.5A collector current, ensuring efficient switching with low on-state losses. The device dissipates up to 40W and has a maximum junction temperature of 150°C.

 

The transistor is housed in a through-hole TO-225AA / TO-126-3 package, supplied as SOT-32-3, which is compatible with standard TO-126 footprints. It is suitable for designs requiring a rugged, high-gain Darlington pair in a single package.
