1. General description

NPN low VCEsat transistor in a SOT223 (SC-73) small Surface-Mounted Device (SMD) plastic

package.

2. Features and benefits

• Low collector-emitter saturation voltage VCEsat

• High collector current capability IC and ICM

• High collector current gain (hFE) at high IC

• High efficiency due to less heat generation

• Smaller required Printed-Circuit Board (PCB) area than for conventional transistors

• Qualified according to AEC-Q101 and recommended for use in automotive applications

3. Applications

• DC-to-DC conversion

• MOSFET gate driving

• Motor control

• Charging circuits

• Power switches (e.g. motors, fans)
