Product details
Overview
BSS126 E6906 from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel depletion-mode SIPMOS® small-signal transistor rated for 600 V drain-source breakdown voltage, 700 Ω maximum on-state resistance at VGS = 0 V and ID = 3 mA, and 6 kV/µs dv/dt immunity-designed for high-voltage level-shifting, constant-current biasing, and solid-state relay driver stages in industrial power supplies and LED ballasts.
For engineers reviewing the BSS126 E6906 datasheet, BSS126 E6906 pinout, BSS126 E6906 application, or BSS126 E6906 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified VGS(th) band sorting (L-band: −2.1 to −1.9 V), SOT-23 package thermal resistance (250 K/W), reverse diode recovery time (160–240 ns), and gate charge total (1.4–2.1 nC) for snubberless switching integrity.
Technical Context
This depletion-mode MOSFET operates with negative gate threshold voltage (−2.7 to −1.6 V), enabling normally-on functionality without external bias-ideal for fail-safe current sources and high-side load switches where gate drive loss must not disable conduction. Its 600 V V(BR)DSS and 6 kV/µs dv/dt rating support direct integration into 400 V AC line-connected circuits.
Dynamic performance is defined by low Crss (1.0–1.5 pF), moderate Qgd (1.2–1.8 nC), and fast turn-off delay (14–21 ns), allowing controlled commutation in high-frequency flyback snubbers and analog current mirrors where gate drive simplicity and voltage transient immunity are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| V(BR)DSS | 600 V - Withstands full 400 V AC peak + margin; enables direct mains-referenced bias networks |
| RDS(on),max | 700 Ω @ VGS=0 V, ID=3 mA - Sets precision current limit in depletion-biased constant-current sources |
| VGS(th) (L-band) | −2.1 to −1.9 V - Tight threshold sorting ensures consistent turn-off behavior across production reels |
| dv/dt immunity | 6 kV/µs - Prevents false triggering during fast voltage transients in high-noise industrial environments |
| trr | 160–240 ns - Enables reliable reverse recovery in synchronous rectifier auxiliary paths without external clamping |
| Qg | 1.4–2.1 nC - Low total gate charge permits direct microcontroller GPIO driving with minimal slew rate limiting |
| Ptot | 0.50 W @ TA=25 °C - Limits continuous dissipation in SOT-23 footprint; requires derating above 70 °C ambient |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-SOT-23 (JEDEC TO-236AB), surface-mount, 3-pin plastic package with standard footprint and thermal pad omitted. RoHS-compliant, Pb-free lead plating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Drain) | High-voltage output node | Connected to 600 V rail or switched inductive load; primary path for ID and dv/dt stress |
| 2 (Gate) | Control terminal | Negative-biased input requiring stable −2 V reference or open-circuit default for depletion operation |
| 3 (Source) | Reference node / current return | Common connection point for bias network, sense resistor, or diode cathode in source-follower configurations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Depletion-mode operation | Conducts at VGS = 0 V-enables fail-safe current sourcing without active gate bias circuitry |
| VGS(th) band sorting (L-band) | −2.1 to −1.9 V per reel label-reduces binning variance in production-level current mirror matching |
| dv/dt rated | 6 kV/µs immunity-eliminates need for gate shielding or RC snubbers in high-dV/dt motor drive auxiliary supplies |
| Integrated body diode | 160–240 ns trr, 0.81–1.2 V VSD-supports bidirectional current flow in analog feedback loops and clamp circuits |
| SOT-23 thermal design | RthJA = 250 K/W (min footprint)-permits 500 mW dissipation only with strict PCB copper area and airflow control |
Applications
| LED Constant-Current Driver | AC Line Voltage Monitor |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Precision current regulation for high-brightness LED strings powered from rectified 230 V AC. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Depletion-mode current source replacing JFET in two-transistor cascode topology.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Normally-on depletion transistor acting as self-resetting pull-up in isolated gate driver supply rail. Use Value: Maintains gate voltage > Vth of power device even during 100 ms MCU brownout-prevents shoot-through risk. | Use Scenario: Regulating auxiliary VCC in offline flyback converters without RCD snubber network. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side depletion-mode switch controlling energy transfer timing via VGS-modulated conduction window. Use Value: 160–240 ns reverse recovery enables clean turn-off at 100 kHz without voltage spikes exceeding 600 V rating. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar depletion-mode high-voltage transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXTP01N60D | 600 V V(BR)DSS, but enhancement-mode (VGS(th) = 2–4 V); RDS(on) = 25 Ω typical | Requires active gate drive; unsuitable for fail-safe bias or zero-bias current sources | Select only when gate control logic is available and low RDS(on) outweighs depletion-mode safety benefits |
| ON Semiconductor J113 | 35 V V(BR)DSS, 1200 Ω RDS(on), no dv/dt rating or VGS(th) sorting | Limited to sub-24 V systems; cannot replace BSS126 in AC-line-referenced designs | Acceptable only in low-voltage analog bias networks where 600 V rating and dv/dt immunity are irrelevant |
Compared with IXTP01N60D and J113, BSS126 E6906 uniquely delivers depletion-mode operation at 600 V with factory-sorted threshold voltage and proven dv/dt robustness-making it irreplaceable in snubberless, fail-safe, or zero-drive high-voltage bias functions.

FAQ
Is BSS126 E6906 a depletion-mode or enhancement-mode MOSFET?
BSS126 E6906 is a confirmed depletion-mode N-channel MOSFET: it conducts at VGS = 0 V and requires a negative gate voltage (−1.6 to −2.7 V) to turn off. This is verified by its IDSS,min = 7 mA at VGS = 0 V and VDS = 25 V, and its specified VGS(th) range of −2.7 to −1.6 V under VDS = 3 V and ID = 8 µA conditions.
What does the 'E6906' suffix indicate in BSS126 E6906?
The 'E6906' suffix identifies the tape-and-reel packaging variant: L6906 denotes 3000-piece reels with VGS(th) sorted into bands (here, L-band: −2.1 to −1.9 V), marked on the reel label. It is not a revision code or temperature grade-it specifies packaging format and threshold binning, per Infineon's 2009 Rev. 1.6 datasheet page 1.
Can BSS126 E6906 be used in place of a JFET in high-voltage current source designs?
Yes-BSS126 E6906 is functionally and electrically compatible with high-voltage JFETs (e.g., 2N5457) in current source roles, offering identical depletion-mode behavior plus superior 600 V rating, tighter VGS(th) sorting, and documented dv/dt immunity. Its RDS(on) and gfs values align with JFET-level analog performance while supporting higher voltage headroom.
Does BSS126 E6906 include an integrated body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes-BSS126 E6906 integrates a monolithic body diode with forward current rating IS = 16 mA continuous, VSD = 0.81–1.2 V at IF = 16 mA and Tj = 25 °C, and reverse recovery time trr = 160–240 ns under VR = 300 V, IF = 10 mA, and diF/dt = 100 A/µs-confirmed in the "Reverse Diode" section of the datasheet (Rev. 1.6, page 3).
