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

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.
