FCX491TA

Diodes Incorporated · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-89

FCX491TA from Diodes Incorporated, in a SOT-89. 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 transistor. Drive current into the base to turn the device on; VBE(on) ≈ 0.83 V typ, VBE(sat) ≈ 0.965 V typ at IC = 1 A, IB = 100 mA. Emitter-base breakdown VEBO = 7 V min.
2 C passive Collector terminal of the NPN transistor; also bonded to the SOT89 exposed back-side heat-slug tab. Rated VCEO = 60 V, VCBO = 80 V, IC = 1 A continuous / ICM = 2 A peak. Tab acts as the primary thermal path (RθJL = 22 °C/W).
3 E passive Emitter terminal of the NPN transistor. Reference terminal for VBE and VCE; VCE(sat) ≈ 160 mV typ at IC = 1 A, IB = 100 mA.
