DSC700300L

The DSC700300L is an NPN bipolar junction transistor manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components. It is designed for general-purpose switching and amplification applications requiring moderate voltage and current handling. Key electrical ratings include a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 50V, a continuous collector current (IC) of 1A, and a power dissipation of 1W. The DC current gain (hFE) is guaranteed to be at least 120 at 500mA collector current and 10V VCE, ensuring consistent performance in linear operation. The collector-emitter saturation voltage is typically 400mV at 50mA base current and 500mA collector current, contributing to low on-state losses. With a transition frequency (fT) of 170MHz, the device is suitable for applications up to moderate frequencies. The transistor is housed in a TO-243AA surface mount package, also known as MiniP3-F2-B, which is compatible with automated assembly processes. The operating junction temperature range extends up to 150°C, allowing use in thermally demanding environments. The DSC700300L is listed as RoHS3 and REACH compliant, though these compliance claims are unverified. This part is a direct replacement for many standard NPN transistors in similar packages and is available in tape and reel packaging for volume production.
