BCX54TA

Diodes Incorporated · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-89

BCX54TA from Diodes Incorporated, 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 terminal of the NPN transistor; continuous base current is limited to 100 mA and peak pulse base current to 200 mA (absolute maximum ratings, page 2).
2 C passive Collector, also the exposed collector pad used for heat sinking; continuous collector current is limited to 1 A and peak pulse to 2 A, with VCEO of 45 V, 60 V or 80 V depending on the BCX54/55/56 type (page 2).
3 E passive Emitter terminal; emitter-base voltage VEBO is limited to 6 V (page 2).
