Bias Resistor Transistor

PNP Silicon Surface Mount Transistor with Monolithic Bias Resistor Network

This new series of digital transistors is designed to replace a single device and its external resistor bias network. The BRT (Bias Resistor Transistor) contains a single transistor with a monolithic bias network consisting of two resistors; a series base resistor and a base-emitter resistor.The BRT eliminates these individual components by integrating them into a single device. The use of a BRT can reduce both system cost and board space. The device is housed in the SOT-23 package which is designed for low power surface mount applications.

∗ Simplifies Circuit Design

∗ Reduces Board Space

∗ Reduces Component Count

∗ The SOT-23 package can be soldered using wave or reflow. The modified gull-winged leads absorb thermal stress during soldering eliminating the possibility of damage to the die.

∗ Available in 8 mm embossed tape and reel. Use the Device Number to order the 7 inch/3000 unit reel. Replace “T1” with “T3” in the Device Number to order the 13 inch/10,000 unit reel.
