DXTx07 Bipolar Transistors in PowerDI®3333

Diodes’ first eight bipolar transistors are now available in PowerDI3333 packaging with four available in NPN (DXTN07) and four in a complementary PNP (DXTP07). These transistors have a breakdown capability ranging up to 100 V and current handling to 3 A. They can perform many functions including linear or LDO regulation, gate driving of MOSFETs, or IGBTs and load switches across a multitude of industrial and consumer applications. Improving power density was a major consideration in developing these products with the aim being to offer the package as an alternative to SOT223 bringing very similar power dissipation in a footprint approximately one third the size. Their extended operating temperature range of up to +175°C is beneficial in applications required to operate in elevated ambient temperatures.
