BUT18AF Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BUT18AF is a silicon diffused NPN power transistor designed for high-voltage and high-speed applications. It features a glass-passivated construction and is housed in a SOT186 package with an electrically isolated mounting base.

 

Key electrical specifications include a collector-emitter peak voltage (VCESM) of 1000V and a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 450V. The continuous collector current (IC) is rated at 6A, with a peak collector current (ICM) of 12A. The collector-emitter saturation voltage (VCEsat) is a maximum of 1.5V at 4A collector current and 800mA base current. The total power dissipation (Ptot) is 33W at 25°C ambient temperature when mounted with heatsink compound.

 

This transistor is suitable for applications such as converters, inverters, switching regulators, and motor control systems. Its high-voltage and high-speed characteristics make it a versatile component for power electronics designs. The SOT186 package facilitates easy mounting and thermal management, especially when used with a heatsink.

 

Thermal characteristics include a typical thermal resistance from junction to heatsink (Rth j-h) of 3.65 K/W when mounted with heatsink compound. The isolation voltage from all terminals to the external heatsink is rated at a peak of 1500V.
