Central Semiconductor Corp. Single Bipolar Transistors BCY59-X PBFREE

BCY59-X is an NPN silicon epitaxial planar transistor in a TO-18 metal case, designed for low noise amplifier and switching applications. It has a collector-emitter voltage rating of 45 V, a continuous collector current of 100 mA, and a power dissipation of 1.0 W at TC=25°C. The transistor features a transition frequency of 150 MHz, current gain (hFE) ranging from 380 to 630 at VCE=5.0 V and IC=2.0 mA, and 240 to 1000 at VCE=1.0 V and IC=10 mA. It operates over a junction temperature range of -65 to +200°C. The PBFREE suffix indicates a lead-free plating option, which is included in the series specification.
