DSS4240T-7 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The DSS4240T-7 is an NPN bipolar junction transistor from Diodes Incorporated designed for low saturation voltage applications. It features a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 40V and a continuous collector current of 2A, with a peak pulse current of 3A. The DC current gain (hFE) is minimum 300 at 1A/2V, and the saturation voltage is 320mV maximum at 200mA base current and 2A collector current. The transition frequency is 100MHz, making it suitable for switching and amplification up to moderate frequencies.

 

This transistor offers low on-resistance (60mΩ at 0.5A) and low saturation voltage (180mV max at 1A) to minimize power dissipation. It is rated for 730mW power dissipation under specific mounting conditions (Note 6) and has an operating junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C. The device is ESD rated to 4000V HBM and has an MSL of Level 1.

 

The DSS4240T-7 is packaged in a small SOT23-3 (TO-236-3, SC-59) surface-mount package. It is fully RoHS3 compliant, halogen-free, and qualified to AEC-Q101 standards for automotive reliability. Note: This part is NRND (Not Recommended for New Design); Diodes recommends the replacement ZXTN4240F-7 for new designs.
