2SC2873-Y

TOSHIBA · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-89

2SC2873-Y from TOSHIBA, in a SOT-89. 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 B input Base; drives the NPN transistor, with IB max 0.4 A and VEBO max 5 V.
2 C passive Collector (also the heat sink tab); VCBO and VCEO are 50 V max and IC is 2 A max.
3 E passive Emitter; connect to the common/ground return of the NPN transistor.
