ZTX551 from Diodes Incorporated, in a TO-92. 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 | C | passive | Collector; PNP collector with VCEO of -65V (ZTX551), continuous IC of -1A and peak pulse ICM of -2A. |
| 2 | B | passive | Base; the emitter-base voltage VEBO is limited to -5V. |
| 3 | E | passive | Emitter; the device symbol shows the emitter arrow pointing into the emitter (PNP). |
