FZT968TA Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The FZT968TA is a PNP bipolar junction transistor designed for medium power switching and amplification. It is housed in a compact SOT223 (Type DN) surface-mount package, making it suitable for space-constrained PCBs.

 

With a maximum collector-emitter voltage of -12 V and continuous collector current of -6 A, this transistor handles substantial load currents. Its typical collector-emitter saturation voltage is only -170 mV at -2 A, minimizing conduction losses. The device also offers a peak pulse current capability of -20 A and a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 300 at 500 mA.

 

The transistor is rated for power dissipation of 3.0 W (on FR4 board) and 1.6 W (on minimum pad), with a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 42°C/W on FR4. It operates over a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. The SOT223 package features gull-wing leads for reliable solder joints in standard reflow processes.

 

Compliant with RoHS 3 and halogen-free, the FZT968TA supports green manufacturing requirements. Typical applications include load switches, power management circuits, and output stages where high current gain and low saturation voltage are essential.
