STPSA42 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The STPSA42 is an NPN bipolar junction transistor manufactured by STMicroelectronics. It features a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 300V minimum and a continuous collector current rating of 0.5A. The device can handle peak currents up to 0.6A for pulses less than 5ms. Power dissipation is rated at 625mW at a case temperature of 25°C.

 

Thermal characteristics include a maximum operating junction temperature of 150°C and a storage temperature range of -65°C to 150°C. The thermal resistance from junction to ambient is 200°C/W, and from junction to case is also specified in the datasheet.

 

The transistor is housed in a TO-92-3 through-hole package, suitable for general purpose switching and amplification in low-power circuits. It is commonly used in driver stages, signal amplification, and low-voltage switching applications.
