2N5551 from RUILON Shenzhen Ruilongyuan Elec, in a SOT-23. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | BASE | passive | Base terminal of the transistor; the datasheet limits for the device are VEBO 6 V (emitter-base) and continuous collector current IC 600 mA. |
| 2 | EMITTER | passive | Emitter terminal; the datasheet gives an emitter-base breakdown voltage V(BR)EBO minimum of 6 V at IE = 10 µA. |
| 3 | COLLECTOR | passive | Collector terminal; the datasheet limits are VCEO 160 V (collector-emitter) and continuous collector current IC 600 mA. |
