BUT70 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BUT70 is a Multiepitaxial planar NPN transistor from STMicroelectronics, housed in a TO-218 plastic package. It is engineered for high frequency and efficiency converters, making it suitable for applications such as switching regulators and motor control.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a high collector-emitter voltage rating of 200V (V BE = -1.5V) and a sustaining voltage of 125V (I B = 0). It boasts a high continuous emitter current capability of 40A (RMS) and a peak current of 120A. The transistor also features a low saturation voltage, with VCE(sat) typically 0.9V at 70A/7A, and a very low saturation voltage of 1.2V at 35A/1.75A and 100°C.

 

With a total power dissipation of 200W at T case < 25°C and a low thermal resistance of 0.63°C/W, the BUT70 is designed for demanding power applications. Its fast switching speed is demonstrated by a rise time of 1.8µs and a fall time of 0.35µs under specific inductive load conditions.

 

The TO-218 package is designed for through-hole mounting, facilitating integration into various electronic circuits.
