BDX53CG Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BDX53CG is an NPN Darlington transistor from On Semiconductor designed for general-purpose amplifier and low-speed switching applications. It features a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 100V minimum and a continuous collector current rating of 8A, with peak current capability up to 12A. The device offers high DC current gain, with a minimum hFE of 750 at 3A and a typical value of 2500 at 4A, enabling efficient current amplification with low base drive requirements.

 

Collector-emitter saturation voltage is low at 2V maximum at 3A collector current, and 4V maximum at 5A. The transistor can dissipate up to 65W at a case temperature of 25°C, with a derating factor of 0.48 W/°C above 25°C. The operating junction temperature range spans -65°C to 150°C, and thermal resistance from junction to case is 1.92°C/W, ensuring reliable thermal management.

 

The BDX53CG is housed in a TO-220-3 through-hole package, which is suitable for easy mounting on heatsinks or PCBs. The device is monolithic with built-in base-emitter shunt resistors, simplifying circuit design. It is Pb-free and RoHS compliant, meeting current environmental standards.
