PBSS5480XZ

Nexperia · Bipolar (BJT) · SOT-89

PBSS5480XZ from Nexperia, in a SOT-89. 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 terminal of the PNP BISS transistor, with the emitter-base voltage limited to −5 V (VEBO).
2 C passive Collector terminal, which is also the collector pad for heat transfer; collector current is limited to −4 A DC (−10 A peak, tp ≤ 1 ms).
3 B passive Base terminal, with base current limited to −1 A DC (−2 A peak, tp ≤ 1 ms).
