Plastic Package NPN Medium Power Transistor Nexperia BC868 115 Series Surface Mount SOT89 SMD Devices
Nexperia BCP68; BC868; BC68PA NPN Medium Power Transistors
Product Overview
The Nexperia BCP68, BC868, and BC68PA series are NPN medium power transistors designed for surface-mounted devices (SMD) in plastic packages. These transistors offer high current capabilities, multiple current gain selections, and high power dissipation. Key features include an exposed heatsink for excellent thermal and electrical conductivity (SOT89, SOT1061) and a leadless, very small SMD plastic package with medium power capability (SOT1061). They are AEC-Q101 qualified, making them suitable for demanding applications such as linear voltage regulators, power management, low-side switches, MOSFET drivers, battery-driven devices, and amplifiers.
