Product details
Overview
BSP51H6327XTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is an NPN silicon Darlington transistor in SOT-223 package, rated for 60 V VCEO, 1 A continuous collector current, and 1.5 W total power dissipation at TS ≤ 124 °C. It delivers low VCE(sat) of 1.3 V (IC = 500 mA, IB = 0.5 mA) and high DC current gain hFE ≥ 1000, enabling efficient switching in automotive load control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BSP51H6327XTSA1 datasheet, BSP51H6327XTSA1 pinout, BSP51H6327XTSA1 application, or BSP51H6327XTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified VCEO/VCBO ratings, Darlington saturation voltage under defined drive conditions, thermal resistance RthJS ≤ 17 K/W, and AEC-Q101 qualification status for automotive use.
Technical Context
This Darlington pair integrates two cascaded NPN transistors to achieve high current gain with single-base control. Its internal structure enables IC = 1 A operation while maintaining low base drive requirements-IB as low as 0.5 mA suffices for 500 mA output under saturation.
The device operates with VBE(sat) up to 2.2 V at IC = 1 A/IB = 1 mA and exhibits fT = 200 MHz (IC = 100 mA, VCE = 5 V), supporting fast switching in relay drivers and lamp ballasts where turn-on time ton ≤ 400 ns and turn-off time toff ≤ 1500 ns are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 60 V - Maximum allowable collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; defines safe operating range in 12 V/24 V automotive supply rails. |
| IC | 1 A continuous - Sustained load current capability without derating at TS ≤ 124 °C; supports solenoid and fan motor drives. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.3 V @ IC = 500 mA, IB = 0.5 mA - Low conduction loss reduces heat generation in high-duty-cycle switching applications. |
| hFE | ≥1000 @ IC = 150 mA, VCE = 10 V - High DC gain minimizes required base drive current, easing MCU GPIO interface design. |
| RthJS | ≤17 K/W - Thermal resistance from junction to soldering point; enables direct PCB copper pour heatsinking without external heatsink. |
| fT | 200 MHz - Transition frequency confirms suitability for medium-speed digital switching (e.g., PWM dimming up to ~50 kHz). |
Pinout & Package
SOT-223 package with 4-pin configuration: Pin 1 = Base (B), Pin 2 = Collector (C), Pin 3 = Emitter (E), Pin 4 = Collector (C). The dual-collector layout improves thermal conduction and current handling by connecting both collector terminals to the large exposed pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Base | Control input; accepts low-current drive (≤100 mA) to switch up to 1 A load; requires no external base resistor when driven by logic-level sources. |
| Pin 2 | Collector | Main high-current output path; electrically tied to Pin 4; connects to load return or ground-referenced loads. |
| Pin 3 | Emitter | Common emitter node; ties to system ground or low-side switch reference; forms Darlington emitter output stage. |
| Pin 4 | Collector | Secondary collector terminal; paralleled internally with Pin 2 to reduce on-resistance and improve thermal spreading to PCB copper. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical stress per JESD22 standards-enables use in engine control modules and body electronics. |
| Pb-free RoHS-compliant | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU; eliminates lead in solderability and end-of-life processing without performance trade-offs. |
| Low VCE(sat) | 1.3 V at 500 mA ensures <1.3 W conduction loss, reducing thermal design burden in space-constrained ECUs. |
| High hFE | Minimum 1000 gain allows direct drive from 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers without base amplification stages. |
Applications
| Automotive Relay Driver | LED Lamp Ballast Control |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving 12 V automotive relays (e.g., HVAC blower, headlight relay) with microcontroller GPIO outputs. IC Role / Device Role: Low-side switch amplifying weak MCU signals into robust 1 A coil current. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete driver stages; VCE(sat) ≤ 1.3 V keeps relay coil power loss below 0.65 W at 500 mA. | Use Scenario: Controlling high-brightness LED arrays in vehicle interior lighting with PWM dimming. IC Role / Device Role: Constant-current switch regulating LED string current up to 1 A. Use Value: High hFE ≥ 1000 ensures stable current regulation across temperature; fT = 200 MHz supports clean 1–20 kHz PWM edges. |
| Industrial Solenoid Actuator | DC Motor Speed Controller |
Use Scenario: Switching 24 V industrial solenoids in valve control systems requiring >500 mA holding current. IC Role / Device Role: High-gain Darlington switch interfacing PLC outputs to inductive loads. Use Value: Dual-collector (Pins 2 & 4) lowers effective RDS(on) and improves thermal coupling to PCB, sustaining 1 A at 85 °C ambient. | Use Scenario: Controlling brushed DC motors in automotive seat adjusters or power window modules. IC Role / Device Role: Low-side PWM switch modulating motor voltage via duty cycle. Use Value: ton/toff ≤ 400/1500 ns enables precise speed resolution at 10–20 kHz switching frequencies without shoot-through risk. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN Darlington transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BCP51TA | VCEO = 60 V, IC = 1 A, but hFE min = 250 (not Darlington); higher VCE(sat) ≈ 0.7 V @ 500 mA. | Requires higher base drive; unsuitable for ultra-low-drive MCU interfaces. | Select only if lower VCE(sat) is not required and discrete gain staging is acceptable. |
| BSP52H6327XTSA1 | VCEO = 80 V, same package/pinout, identical hFE and VCE(sat) specs. | Direct upgrade path for designs needing higher voltage margin in 48 V systems. | Drop-in replacement when 80 V rating is required; no layout or drive changes needed. |
Compared with BCP51TA, BSP51H6327XTSA1 provides 4× higher DC gain and lower drive loss; versus BSP52H6327XTSA1, it trades 20 V voltage headroom for identical thermal and switching performance in 12/24 V platforms.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for BSP51H6327XTSA1?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is 150 °C, as specified in the Infineon datasheet. Operation above this limit risks permanent degradation of the Darlington structure. Derating begins at TS > 124 °C, where Ptot linearly decreases from 1.5 W to zero at 150 °C junction temperature.
Does BSP51H6327XTSA1 require a base resistor when driven by a 3.3 V MCU GPIO?
Yes-a base resistor is required to limit IB to ≤100 mA and ensure stable Darlington biasing. With hFE ≥ 1000 and IC = 1 A, minimum IB ≈ 1 mA is needed; a 2.2 kΩ resistor provides ~1.2 mA drive from 3.3 V, staying within safe limits and avoiding saturation delay.
Is BSP51H6327XTSA1 pin-compatible with BSP50 or BSP52?
Yes-BSP50, BSP51, and BSP52 share identical SOT-223 pinout (Pin 1 = B, Pin 2 = C, Pin 3 = E, Pin 4 = C) and footprint. Only VCEO/VCBO ratings differ (45 V / 60 V / 80 V), allowing direct substitution where voltage margin permits.
How does the dual-collector (Pins 2 & 4) configuration improve thermal performance?
The dual-collector layout electrically parallels both collector terminals to the large exposed thermal pad, reducing effective thermal resistance from junction to PCB. This achieves RthJS ≤ 17 K/W-up to 25% lower than single-collector equivalents-enabling higher sustained current in compact layouts without external heatsinks.
