Product details
Overview
BSS126L6906HTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel depletion-mode SIPMOS® small-signal transistor rated for 600 V drain-source breakdown, 700 Ω max RDS(on), and 21 mA continuous drain current at 25 °C. It features dv/dt immunity up to 6 kV/µs and is optimized for high-voltage, low-current switching in solid-state relays and ESD-protected interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BSS126L6906HTSA1 datasheet, BSS126L6906HTSA1 pinout, BSS126L6906HTSA1 application, or BSS126L6906HTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified VGS(th) band L (−2.1 to −1.9 V), guaranteed dv/dt ruggedness, reverse diode recovery time under 240 ns, and SOT-23 package compatibility with automated assembly.
Technical Context
This depletion-mode MOSFET operates with gate-source voltage ranging from −2.1 V to −1.9 V (band L) to achieve reliable turn-off at zero gate bias. Its 600 V V(BR)DSS and 6 kV/µs dv/dt rating enable robust operation in inductive load switching and transient-prone signal conditioning paths.
The device integrates a monolithic body diode with 160–240 ns reverse recovery time and 13.2–19.8 nC Qrr, supporting fast commutation in flyback snubbers and level-shifting clamps without external diode addition.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| V(BR)DSS | 600 V - Withstands 600 V drain-source blocking voltage before avalanche, enabling use in 400 V AC line-derived DC rails. |
| RDS(on), max | 700 Ω - On-resistance limits conduction loss to ≤175 mW at 16 mA, suitable for micro-power bias and leakage control. |
| VGS(th) band | L (−2.1 to −1.9 V) - Tight threshold spread ensures consistent turn-off behavior across production reels without gate-bias trimming. |
| IDSS, min | 7 mA - Minimum on-state current at VGS = 0 V supports predictable current sourcing in constant-current source configurations. |
| dv/dt rating | 6 kV/µs - Immune to false triggering during fast voltage transients, critical for relay replacement in noisy industrial I/O modules. |
| trr | 160–240 ns - Fast reverse recovery enables clean switching in 100 kHz–1 MHz snubberless flyback auxiliary windings. |
| Ciss | 21–28 pF - Low input capacitance minimizes gate drive power and improves high-frequency stability in oscillator bias networks. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-SOT-23 (standard JEDEC TO-236AB footprint, 3-pin surface-mount).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Drain) | High-voltage output node | Connected to 600 V rail or inductive load; requires ≥0.5 mm creepage clearance per IEC 61000-4-5. |
| 2 (Gate) | Depletion-mode control terminal | Internally biased negative relative to source; no external pull-down needed for default-on operation. |
| 3 (Source) | Reference and return path | Common node for gate drive reference and diode cathode; must be tied directly to PCB ground plane for thermal stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Depletion-mode operation | Conducts at VGS = 0 V, eliminating need for active gate bias circuitry in always-on fail-safe paths. |
| dv/dt ruggedness | 6 kV/µs rating validated per IEC 61000-4-4, enabling direct replacement of mechanical relays in PLC output stages. |
| VGS(th) band sorting | Reel-coded band L (−2.1 to −1.9 V) ensures batch-to-batch consistency for precision current-source designs. |
| Integrated body diode | Monolithic diode with 0.81–1.2 V forward drop at 16 mA supports bidirectional clamping without discrete components. |
| Pb-free & RoHS compliant | Pb-free lead plating meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JESD22-A114-HBM Class 0 (<250 V) ESD protection. |
Applications
| High-Voltage Bias Generator | Solid-State Relay Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Generating stable 300–500 V bias for photomultiplier tubes or CCD sensor arrays in medical imaging systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Depletion-mode current source providing constant 7–16 mA with minimal temperature drift. Use Value: Eliminates need for high-voltage op-amp feedback loop; RDS(on) variation <±15% over −40 to +125 °C ensures stable gain calibration. | Use Scenario: Replacing electromechanical relays in programmable logic controller (PLC) digital output modules handling 24–240 V AC/DC loads. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-voltage switch controlling load current with built-in dv/dt immunity and integrated flyback diode. Use Value: 6 kV/µs dv/dt rating prevents spurious turn-on during inductive load switching; trr <240 ns avoids cross-conduction in half-bridge configurations. |
| ESD-Protected Interface Clamp | Flyback Snubber Element |
Use Scenario: Protecting RS-485 transceiver inputs against ±8 kV contact ESD per IEC 61000-4-2 in industrial fieldbus nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-turning depletion-mode clamp activated by transient-induced gate coupling, not external trigger. Use Value: V(BR)DSS = 600 V provides 3× margin above 2 kV test voltage; ID(off) ≤0.1 µA at 600 V ensures negligible standby leakage. | Use Scenario: Absorbing leakage energy in auxiliary winding snubbers of offline flyback converters operating up to 100 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Self-biased snubbing element leveraging depletion-mode conduction and fast-recovery body diode. Use Value: Qrr = 13.2–19.8 nC and trr <240 ns minimize snubber losses; Ciss <28 pF reduces gate oscillation risk during voltage transitions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar depletion-mode high-voltage switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BSS123 | Lower V(BR)DSS (300 V), higher IDSS (20 mA), no dv/dt rating specified | Not suitable for >350 V DC bus applications; lacks documented transient immunity | Select only for sub-200 V bias or low-energy clamp roles where dv/dt stress is absent. |
| BS170 | Higher RDS(on) (max 50 Ω), lower V(BR)DSS (60 V), non-depletion enhancement mode requiring gate drive | Requires active gate control; unsuitable for fail-safe default-on functions | Use only when gate drive availability and low-voltage operation (<60 V) are guaranteed. |
Compared with BSS126L6906HTSA1, BSS123 sacrifices voltage headroom and transient robustness for higher on-current, while BS170 abandons depletion-mode simplicity entirely-making neither a drop-in replacement for 600 V, dv/dt-critical, zero-bias applications.

FAQ
What does the 'L6906' suffix indicate in BSS126L6906HTSA1?
The 'L6906' suffix identifies the VGS(th) band (L) and reel packaging code (6906). Band L specifies a gate threshold voltage range of −2.1 V to −1.9 V at VDS = 3 V and ID = 8 µA. The '6906' denotes a 3000-piece tape-and-reel configuration with VGS(th)-sorted devices, labeled per JEDEC standard on the reel.
Can BSS126L6906HTSA1 replace a mechanical relay in 240 V AC output circuits?
Yes-its 600 V V(BR)DSS, 6 kV/µs dv/dt rating, and integrated body diode support direct replacement of SPST mechanical relays in 240 V AC output stages. Designers must ensure PCB layout maintains ≥2.5 mm creepage between drain and other nets, and verify peak repetitive current stays below 85 mA per pulsed rating.
Is the body diode in BSS126L6906HTSA1 suitable for freewheeling inductive loads?
Yes-the monolithic body diode has a reverse recovery time of 160–240 ns and Qrr of 13.2–19.8 nC, making it suitable for freewheeling in low-energy inductive loads (e.g., solenoid drivers ≤100 mA, 24 V). For high-current or high-frequency flyback applications, external Schottky supplementation is recommended to reduce switching loss.
How does the depletion-mode characteristic affect gate drive design?
As a depletion-mode device, BSS126L6906HTSA1 conducts at VGS = 0 V and requires a negative gate voltage (≤−1.9 V) to fully turn off. Gate drive must provide controlled negative bias-typically via a simple resistive divider from a negative rail or charge-pump circuit-not just ground referencing. No pull-down resistor is needed for default-on behavior.
