# BCP56

**Changjing** · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-223

BCP56 from Changjing, 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 terminal of the NPN transistor; the emitter-base voltage rating VEBO is 5 V. |
| 2 | COLLECTOR | passive | Collector terminal of the NPN transistor; for BCP56 the collector-base voltage VCBO is 100 V, the collector-emitter voltage VCEO is 80 V, and the continuous collector current IC is 1 A. |
| 3 | EMITTER | passive | Emitter terminal of the NPN transistor; the emitter-base voltage rating VEBO is 5 V. |

## CAD (KiCad official)

- Symbol: `BCP56`
- Footprint: `Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-223-3_TabPin2`
- 3D model: SOT-223 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
- 3D model files: `bcp56-etched.step` / `bcp56-etched.glb` carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable `Adom.LaserEtch` group (Fusion-ready); `bcp56.step` / `bcp56.glb` are the bare package body.
