BC302 NPN Transistor - Metal-Can TO-39 for General-Purpose Use

The BC302 is an NPN bipolar junction transistor housed in a TO-39 metal package, rated for 60V and 0.5A collector current. Its metal-can construction offers better heat dissipation than plastic TO-92 parts, making it a solid choice for general-purpose amplification and switching circuits that run slightly warmer.

Functions & Applications

  • Metal TO-39 Case: Improved heat dissipation compared to plastic small-signal packages.
  • 60V Vceo Rating: Enough headroom for general-purpose 12V/24V circuit designs.
  • 0.5A Collector Current: Suitable for driving small relays, loads and moderate switching duties.
  • NPN General-Purpose BJT: Usable in both amplification and switching topologies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the BC302 be used as a direct replacement for BC547 in higher voltage circuits?
A: It can be used similarly in general-purpose NPN switching/amplification roles, but note the BC302's TO-39 metal package requires different PCB footprint and mounting than the BC547's TO-92.

Q: What is the maximum load current the BC302 can switch?
A: The BC302 is rated for up to 0.5A collector current, suitable for small relays, LEDs, or low-power loads.

Note: Price refers to one (1) piece. The component is shipped in bulk without individual packaging.
