Increased power handling from compact
PNP
The ZX5T2E6 PNP transistor is billed as taking the performance of miniature SOT23-6 packaged parts to a new high with its power handling capability of 70W.
One of the first batch of products to be released from the Zetex Generation 5 bipolar process, the ZX5T2E6 PNP transistor takes the performance of miniature SOT23-6 packaged parts to a new high with its power handling capability of 70W Characterised by Generation 5's low saturation voltage, arising from a reduced component resistance, the ZX5T2E6 provides designers with a high efficiency solution for battery charging, DC/DC convertor and general power management tasks

MOSFETs to give that home theatre sound
Zetex has launched a series of four N- and P-channel MOSFETs providing all the performance demanded by Class D audio systems.
This 20V PNP transistor exhibits a -130mV maximum saturation voltage for a saturation resistance rating of just 31mohm and can sustain a continuous collector current of 3.5A.
Its high hFE capability also helps minimise the drive requirements - the gain offered at 1A for example is at least 300.
The ZX5T2E6 uses the sub-3mm2 footprint and maximum 1.45mm off-board height of the SOT23-6 package to help designers optimise board size.
The price of the ZX5T2E6 through distributors is $0.27 in quantities of 10,000.
