BUV20

TRANS NPN 125V 50A TO3

Manufacturer: STMicroelectronics

Categories: Single Bipolar Transistors

Quality Control: Learn More

STMicroelectronics BUV20, an NPN bipolar junction transistor, offers robust performance for demanding applications. This component features a 125V collector-emitter breakdown voltage and a maximum collector current of 50A, with a saturation voltage of 1.2V at 5A/50A. The minimum DC current gain (hFE) is 20 at 25A/2V, and it operates with a transition frequency of 8MHz. Rated for 250W maximum power dissipation, the BUV20 is housed in a TO-3 (TO-204AA) package, designed for chassis mounting. Its high operating temperature capability of up to 200°C (TJ) makes it suitable for power switching and amplification circuits in industrial and automotive sectors.
