BD202 PNP Power Transistor - 8A / 60W for Robust Switching & Amplification

The BD202 is a PNP power transistor in a TO-220 package, rated for 8A collector current and 60W power dissipation, making it a solid choice for power amplifier output stages, motor control and general-purpose power switching. It is commonly paired with the complementary NPN BD201 in push-pull configurations.

Functions & Applications

  • 8A Collector Current: Handles substantial loads such as motors, relays and power amplifier stages.
  • 60W Power Dissipation: Suitable for demanding power applications when properly heatsinked.
  • TO-220 Package: Easy to mount with a heatsink, standard pin spacing for through-hole PCBs.
  • Complementary Pairing: Works alongside the NPN BD201 for symmetrical push-pull amplifier designs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the complementary NPN part for the BD202?
A: The complementary NPN transistor is the BD201, commonly used together in push-pull power amplifier stages.

Q: Does the BD202 need a heatsink?
A: For its full 60W power dissipation rating, a heatsink is required; at lower currents in short-duty switching it may run without one, but a heatsink is recommended for reliable operation.
