BCP56-16-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 NPN transistor; hFE(2) is 100-250 for the -16 rank at VCE=2V, IC=150mA, and VEBO is limited to 5 V. |
| 2 | COLLECTOR | passive | Collector of the NPN transistor; BCP56-MS is rated VCBO 100 V, VCEO 80 V and IC 1 A continuous. |
| 3 | EMITTER | passive | Emitter of the NPN transistor, the common reference terminal; VEBO is limited to 5 V. |
