BDX54C Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BDX54C is a PNP Darlington transistor from On Semiconductor designed for general-purpose amplifier and low-speed switching applications. It features a high DC current gain of 2500 typical at 4A collector current, with a minimum gain of 750 at 3A and 3V. The device offers a collector-emitter sustaining voltage of 100V minimum and a low collector-emitter saturation voltage of 2V maximum at 3A.

 

This transistor supports a continuous collector current of 8A and a peak collector current of 12A, with a maximum power dissipation of 65W at 25°C case temperature. The device includes built-in base-emitter shunt resistors and uses monolithic construction for improved reliability. It operates over a junction temperature range of -65°C to 150°C.

 

The BDX54C is housed in a TO-220-3 package with through-hole mounting, making it suitable for PCB designs requiring heat sinking. The thermal resistance is 1.92°C/W junction-to-case and 70°C/W junction-to-ambient, with a power derating of 0.48W/°C above 25°C case temperature.

 

This device is Pb-Free and RoHS compliant, suitable for applications requiring high current gain and low saturation voltage in power switching and amplification circuits.
