Frequently Asked Questions

How much current gain does the BDX53C Darlington transistor provide?

The BDX53C offers a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 750 while switching up to 8A of collector current and blocking up to 100V, making it well suited for high-gain driver and switching applications.

How is the BDX53C packaged for high-power thermal management?

The BDX53C is housed in a 3-pin TO-220 package, a widely used through-hole format that supports heatsink mounting for reliable thermal dissipation while handling up to 8A and 100V in Darlington switching circuits.

Why is factory lead time a consideration when sourcing the BDX53C?

STMicroelectronics lists a factory lead time of around 14 weeks and a YTEOL rating of 9 years for the BDX53C, so procurement teams sourcing this 8A, 100V Darlington transistor for production programs should order ahead of need.
