BUL216 from STMicroelectronics, in a TO-220. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | B | input | Base terminal of the NPN power transistor; base current IB max 2 A (IBM 4 A pulsed), used to drive the device into saturation (VBE(sat) up to 1.2 V). |
| 2 | C | passive | Collector terminal of the NPN power transistor, internally connected to the metal mounting tab; rated for collector current IC up to 4 A (ICM 6 A pulsed) and blocking voltages up to VCES 1600 V / VCEO 800 V. |
| 3 | E | passive | Emitter terminal of the NPN power transistor; emitter-base voltage rated VEBO 9 V (IE = 10 mA test condition). |
