PBSS4021NZ

20 V, 8 A NPN low VCEsat transistor

NPN low VCEsat transistor in a SOT223 (SC-73) medium power Surface-Mounted Device (SMD) plastic package.

PNP complement: PBSS4021PZ

Features and benefits

  • Very low collector-emitter saturation voltage VCEsat

  • High collector current capability IC and ICM

  • High collector current gain (hFE) at high IC

  • High energy efficiency due to less heat generation

  • Smaller required Printed-Circuit Board (PCB) area than for conventional transistors

  • AEC-Q101 qualified

Applications

  • Loadswitch

  • Battery-driven devices

  • Power management

  • Charging circuits

  • Power switches (e.g. motors, fans)

Sample

As a Nexperia customer you can order samples via our sales organization.

If you do not have a direct account with Nexperia our network of global and regional distributors is available and equipped to support you with Nexperia samples. Check out the list of official distributors.

How does it work?

The interactive datasheets are based on the Nexperia MOSFET precision electrothermal models. With our interactive datasheets you can simply specify your own conditions interactively. Start by changing the values of the conditions. You can do this by using the sliders in the condition fields. By dragging the sliders you will see how the MOSFET will perform at the new conditions set.
