BSS52 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BSS52 is an NPN Darlington bipolar junction transistor manufactured by Central Semiconductor Corp. It provides a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 80V and a collector current rating of 1A. The minimum DC current gain is 2000 at a collector current of 500mA and collector-emitter voltage of 10V, allowing high amplification with low base drive. Maximum collector-emitter saturation voltage is 1.6V at 4mA base current and 1A collector current.

 

Power dissipation is rated at 800mW, and the junction temperature range spans -65°C to 200°C. The device is supplied in a through-hole TO-205AD / TO-39-3 metal can package, with a supplier device package of TO-39. The metal can construction supports reliable thermal and mechanical performance in demanding environments.

 

As a Darlington pair, the BSS52 combines high current gain with high input impedance, making it well suited for switching and linear amplification circuits where minimal base current is available. The 80V voltage rating and 1A current capability cover a range of medium-power applications, while the wide operating temperature range supports industrial designs.
