Product details
Overview
2SC6091 from SANYO Semiconductor is an NPN triple-diffused planar silicon transistor designed for horizontal deflection output in color TV systems, featuring VCBO=1500 V, VCEO=700 V, IC=8 A (DC), PC=65 W at Tc=25°C, and tf=0.2 µs under specified switching conditions.
For engineers reviewing the 2SC6091 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include high-voltage sustain capability (VCEO(sus)=700 V), fast fall time (tf=0.2 µs), low VCE(sat)1=0.1–0.3 V at IC=2.25 A/IB=0.45 A, and TO-3PMLH package thermal performance up to 65 W at case temperature.
Technical Context
The 2SC6091 employs SANYO's HVP (High Voltage Process) and MBIT (Mesa Base Injection Transistor) technologies to achieve robust high-voltage blocking and stable switching in horizontal deflection circuits. Its triple-diffused planar structure ensures controlled carrier distribution and reduced secondary breakdown risk.
Designed specifically for flyback transformer drive in CRT TV horizontal output stages, it operates with base-driven switching (IB1/IB2 control), supports pulse currents up to ICP=20 A, and maintains VCE(sat)2 ≤ 2 V at IC=4.5 A/IB=0.9 A - critical for minimizing conduction loss during retrace intervals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCBO | 1500 V - Enables safe operation with high-voltage flyback spikes in CRT horizontal deflection circuits. |
| VCEO(sus) | 700 V - Sustains full horizontal retrace voltage without avalanche or breakdown under zero-bias conditions. |
| IC (DC) | 8 A - Supports continuous horizontal scan current in standard 21–32 inch color TV designs. |
| tf | 0.2 µs - Ensures rapid turn-off to minimize switching loss and prevent transformer core saturation during retrace. |
| VCE(sat)1 | 0.1–0.3 V @ IC=2.25 A/IB=0.45 A - Reduces conduction loss and junction heating during active scan period. |
| PC @ Tc=25°C | 65 W - Delivers high power handling in TO-3PMLH package with external heatsink mounting. |
| hFE2 | 5.3–7.5 @ VCE=5 V/IC=5 A - Provides predictable base drive requirements for stable gain-controlled switching. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-3PMLH (SANYO designation), metal-can isolated tab, vertical mounting, screw-hole compatible, thermally optimized for high-power dissipation with heatsink interface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Base) | Control input terminal | Receives base drive current (IB1/IB2) to switch collector current; requires low-impedance driver for fast edge control. |
| 2 (Collector) | High-voltage power output | Connected to flyback transformer primary; rated for 1500 V reverse bias and 65 W dissipation at case. |
| 3 (Emitter) | Power return / reference node | Common emitter configuration; tied to ground or low-side shunt; carries full load current (up to 8 A DC). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| HVP process integration | Enables reliable 1500 V VCBO rating with controlled depletion layer extension and reduced leakage (ICBO ≤ 10 µA @ VCB=800 V). |
| MBIT structure | Improves base injection efficiency and current gain linearity at high IC, supporting stable hFE2=5.3–7.5 up to 5 A. |
| Fast fall time (tf) | 0.2 µs @ IC=3 A/IB1=0.6 A/IB2=−1.2 A - minimizes overlap loss and enables >15.7 kHz horizontal scanning without thermal runaway. |
| High pulse current rating | ICP=20 A - accommodates transient surge during flyback reset and CRT beam retrace without second breakdown. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage horizontal deflection transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2SC5027 | VCBO=1500 V, VCEO=700 V, tf=0.25 µs, PC=65 W, same TO-3PMLH package | Slightly slower fall time; identical pinout and voltage ratings | Acceptable drop-in replacement where 0.05 µs longer tf is tolerable in legacy design margins. |
| BU2520DX | VCBO=1500 V, VCEO=700 V, tf=0.18 µs, PC=65 W, TO-3P package (non-isolated tab) | Faster switching but non-isolated collector tab requires insulated mounting hardware | Preferred when faster switching is needed and board layout allows isolation adaptation. |
Compared with 2SC6091, 2SC5027 offers identical voltage/current specs but slightly degraded switching speed, while BU2520DX improves tf by 10% but requires mechanical redesign for collector isolation - both serve as functional alternatives in CRT horizontal output, not pin-to-pin replacements without validation.

FAQ
What is the maximum collector-emitter voltage the 2SC6091 can sustain in switching operation?
The 2SC6091 has a guaranteed collector-to-emitter sustaining voltage VCEO(sus) of 700 V at IC = 100 mA and IB = 0 A. This rating reflects its ability to block voltage during the horizontal retrace interval in CRT deflection circuits without breakdown, and is distinct from its DC-rated VCEO of 700 V. Operation above this value risks avalanche failure.
Does the 2SC6091 require a heatsink in typical color TV applications?
Yes - the 2SC6091 dissipates up to 65 W at Tc = 25°C, which necessitates a properly mounted heatsink in all operational modes. Without forced cooling or heatsinking, junction temperature exceeds 150°C rapidly. The TO-3PMLH package features an isolated metal tab designed for direct thermal interface to external heatsinks using insulating washers and thermal compound.
What is the base-emitter saturation voltage of the 2SC6091 under full-load conditions?
The 2SC6091 exhibits a base-to-emitter saturation voltage VBE(sat) of 1.5 V at IC = 4.5 A and IB = 0.9 A. This value determines required base drive voltage headroom and impacts driver transistor selection - for example, a Darlington pre-driver must supply ≥2.0 V to ensure full saturation across temperature and unit variation.
Can the 2SC6091 be used in modern LCD or LED TV power supplies?
No - the 2SC6091 is purpose-built for CRT horizontal deflection output stages and is not suited for modern switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) in LCD/LED TVs. Its gain profile, switching characteristics, and safe operating area are optimized for 15.7 kHz quasi-resonant flyback operation, not high-frequency (≥50 kHz) PWM topologies used in contemporary AC-DC converters.
Is the 2SC6091 pin-compatible with the 2SC5027?
Yes - the 2SC6091 and 2SC5027 share identical TO-3PMLH packaging, pin assignment (Base=1, Collector=2, Emitter=3), and mechanical footprint. However, differences in fall time (0.2 µs vs. 0.25 µs) and hFE dispersion mean electrical validation is required before substitution in production systems.
