BDX53C NPN Darlington Power Transistor (100V, 8A, 60W, TO 220, 1 Qty)
The BDX53C NPN Darlington Power Transistor is a high gain silicon bipolar transistor designed for power switching, amplification and electronic driver applications. Featuring a collector emitter voltage rating of 100V, maximum collector current of 8A and power dissipation rating of 60W, this transistor is suitable for power amplifier circuits, motor control systems and industrial electronic equipment.
The BDX53C features a Darlington configuration consisting of two internally connected NPN transistors, providing high current amplification with relatively low base drive requirements. Its DC current gain of at least 750 at a collector current of 3A makes it suitable for driving higher current loads using suitable control circuits. The TO 220 package supports through hole PCB mounting and heat dissipation using an appropriate heat sink. Its complementary PNP transistor is the BDX54C, making it suitable for complementary amplifier and power driver configurations.
