PMBT5550 from Nexperia, in a SOT-23. 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; the datasheet limits peak base current to IBM 100 mA (single pulse, tp ≤ 1 ms). |
| 2 | E | passive | Emitter terminal; the emitter-base voltage is limited to VEBO 6 V (open collector). |
| 3 | C | passive | Collector terminal; the datasheet limits collector current to IC 300 mA (ICM 600 mA peak) with VCEO 140 V (open base) and VCBO 160 V. |
