BCP53-16-MS

MSKSEMI · Bipolar Transistors - BJT · SOT-223

BCP53-16-MS from MSKSEMI, in a SOT-223. 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 input Base of the PNP transistor; the datasheet lists VEBO of -5 V maximum and V(BR)EBO of -5 V at IE=-10μA.
2 COLLECTOR passive Collector of the PNP transistor; continuous collector current is -1 A maximum and VCEO is -80 V for the BCP53 type.
3 EMITTER passive Emitter of the PNP transistor, the common terminal for the base-emitter and collector-emitter voltage ratings.
