BD679A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The STMicroelectronics BD679A is an NPN Darlington transistor designed for high-current switching and amplification. It features a collector-emitter voltage rating of 80 V, a continuous collector current of 4 A, and a power dissipation of 40 W. The Darlington configuration provides a high DC current gain, with a minimum hFE of 750 at 2 A collector current and 3 V collector-emitter voltage. The collector-emitter saturation voltage is typically 2.8 V at 2 A with a base current of 40 mA.

 

The transistor is housed in a through-hole SOT-32-3 package, which is also known as TO-225AA or TO-126-3. It has a junction temperature rating of up to 150 °C, making it suitable for moderate-power applications. The device is RoHS3 compliant (unverified) and has an MSL of 1 (unlimited).

 

This transistor is commonly used in general-purpose switching and amplification circuits where high gain is required. Its rugged construction and reasonable power handling make it suitable for a variety of industrial and consumer electronic designs.
