Product details
Overview
BCP49H6419XTMA1 from Infineon Technologies is an NPN silicon Darlington transistor in SOT223 package, rated for 60 V VCEO, 500 mA DC collector current, and minimum hFE of 2000 at 100 µA/1 V - used in automotive lighting control, relay drivers, and low-frequency power switching where high current gain and robust thermal performance are required.
For engineers reviewing the BCP49H6419XTMA1 datasheet, BCP49H6419XTMA1 pinout, BCP49H6419XTMA1 application, or BCP49H6419XTMA1 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, validated SOT223 terminal mapping, AEC-Q101 qualification status, thermal resistance (RthJS ≤17 K/W), and real-world use cases in automotive and industrial load switching.
Technical Context
This Darlington pair integrates two NPN transistors in cascade to achieve ultra-high DC current gain (up to 10,000 at 100 mA), enabling microcontroller-level base drive to switch loads up to 500 mA. It features VCEO = 60 V and VCBO = 80 V, supporting operation in 24 V automotive systems with margin.
Thermal design is enabled by its SOT223 package with RthJS ≤17 K/W and Ptot = 1.5 W at TS = 124 °C. Saturation voltages are specified at VCEsat ≤1 V and VBEsat ≤1.5 V under IC = 100 mA / IB = 0.1 mA conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 60 V - supports 24 V nominal automotive bus with 150 % overvoltage margin |
| IC (DC) | 500 mA - sufficient for driving solenoids, small relays, and LED arrays |
| hFE min | 2000 @ 100 µA/1 V - enables direct GPIO drive without external pre-biasing |
| VCEsat max | 1 V @ 100 mA/0.1 mA - limits conduction loss to ≤100 mW at rated current |
| RthJS | ≤17 K/W - allows 1.5 W dissipation with ≤25.5 K rise above solder point |
| fT | 200 MHz typ - supports switching up to ~10–20 kHz with stable gain |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - certified for automotive electronics per stress test requirements |
Pinout & Package
SOT223 package with exposed emitter pad for thermal enhancement; 4-terminal configuration with dual collector connection for current sharing and reduced saturation voltage.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Base | Control input; requires current-limited drive due to Darlington input impedance |
| Pin 2 | Collector | Main high-side load connection; electrically tied to Pin 4 |
| Pin 3 | Emitter | Power return path; large copper pad for heat sinking and low-impedance ground routing |
| Pin 4 | Collector | Second collector terminal; paralleled with Pin 2 to reduce on-resistance and improve thermal distribution |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-high hFE | Min 2000 at low bias → eliminates need for multi-stage driver circuits |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive temperature range (−40 °C to 150 °C junction) |
| SOT223 thermal performance | RthJS ≤17 K/W → enables 1.5 W operation with minimal heatsinking |
| Dual collector terminals | Pins 2 & 4 internally connected → improves current sharing and reduces localized heating |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Darlington transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BCP52H6419XTMA1 | PNP complement; same package, VCEO = −60 V, hFE ≥2000 | Used in high-side switching or complementary push-pull stages | Select when sourcing current from rail instead of sinking to ground |
| STBV33D | Higher VCEO = 80 V, lower hFE (min 1000), SOT223-4L | Better suited for 48 V telecom or industrial supplies | Choose for higher voltage margin where gain >2000 not required |
Compared with BCP49H6419XTMA1, BCP52H6419XTMA1 provides polarity-matched functionality in identical packaging, while STBV33D trades gain for extended voltage rating - both require revalidation of base drive and thermal layout.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector current for BCP49H6419XTMA1?
The absolute maximum DC collector current is 500 mA at TS = 124 °C. Derating applies above this case temperature: total power dissipation drops linearly to zero at 150 °C junction temperature. Pulse operation up to 800 mA is permitted for t ≤ 300 µs with duty cycle ≤2%.
Is BCP49H6419XTMA1 suitable for 24 V automotive battery monitoring circuits?
Yes - its 60 V VCEO rating provides 150 % margin over 24 V nominal systems, and AEC-Q101 qualification confirms operation from −40 °C to +150 °C junction. However, it must be used as a switch, not a linear regulator, due to limited safe operating area at high VCE.
How does the dual-collector configuration affect PCB layout?
Pins 2 and 4 are internally shorted collectors, so both must be routed to the same net - typically the load supply rail. This configuration lowers effective on-resistance and spreads thermal load across two bond wires and pads, improving reliability under sustained 500 mA operation.
Can BCP49H6419XTMA1 replace BC817 in existing designs?
No - BC817 is a single NPN transistor (hFE ≈ 100–630), while BCP49H6419XTMA1 is a Darlington with hFE ≥2000 and higher VCEsat. Direct substitution would cause excessive base current draw and potential saturation failure; redesign of base resistor and thermal layout is mandatory.
