BF422

Changjing · Bipolar Transistors - BJT · TO-92

BF422 from Changjing, 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 EMITTER passive Emitter of the NPN transistor; emitter-base voltage limited to 5 V (VEBO) and V(BR)EBO min 5 V at IE=100 µA.
2 COLLECTOR passive Collector of the NPN transistor; BF422 VCBO/VCEO 250 V, continuous collector current 100 mA.
3 BASE passive Base of the NPN transistor; drives the device with VCE(sat) max 0.6 V at IC=30 mA, IB=5 mA.
