1. Product profile
1.1 General description
NPN low V
CEsat
Breakthrough In Small Signal (BISS) transistor in a SOT666 Surface
Mounted Device (SMD) plastic package.
PNP complement: PBSS5220V.
1.2 Features
Low collector-emitter saturation voltage V
CEsat
High collector current capability: I
C
and I
CM
High collector current gain (h
FE
) at high I
C
High efficiency due to less heat generation
Smaller required Printed-Circuit Board (PCB) area than for conventional transistors
1.3 Applications
DC-to-DC conversion
MOSFET gate driving
Motor control
Charging circuits
Low power switches (e.g. motors, fans)
Portable applications
