ZTX551

Diodes Incorporated · Bipolar (BJT) · TO-92

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).
