PBSS4160XX

Nexperia · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-89-3

PBSS4160XX from Nexperia, in a SOT-89-3. 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 E passive Emitter of the NPN transistor; the datasheet gives no pin-specific rating, so the device limits in Table 5 apply.
2 C passive Collector of the NPN transistor; the device limits are VCEO 60 V and IC 1 A, with ICM 2 A peak for tp ≤ 1 ms (Table 5).
3 B passive Base of the NPN transistor; the device limits are IB 300 mA and IBM 1 A peak for tp ≤ 1 ms (Table 5).
