Product details
Overview
KSC2073H1TU from onsemi is an NPN epitaxial silicon transistor designed for TV vertical deflection output stages, featuring VCBO = 150 V, VCEO = 150 V, IC = 1.5 A, PC = 25 W at TC = 25 °C, and hFE = 40–80 (H1 classification). It operates in linear switching mode with fT = 4 MHz and Cob = 50 pF, commonly used in CRT television horizontal/vertical scan circuitry.
For engineers reviewing the KSC2073H1TU datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its TO-220-3LD package, vertical deflection duty cycle capability, safe operating area (SOA) limits, and complementary pairing with KSA940 for push-pull output stages.
Technical Context
This device is a medium-power, high-voltage NPN bipolar junction transistor optimized for vertical deflection linearity and thermal stability in analog CRT display systems. Its 150 V breakdown ratings and 25 W power dissipation support sustained pulse operation under inductive load conditions typical of flyback transformer drive.
The H1 hFE bin (40–80) ensures predictable DC biasing in fixed-gain driver circuits, while the 4 MHz fT and 50 pF Cob enable stable switching up to ~15.7 kHz vertical scan frequencies without excessive phase lag or ringing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCBO | 150 V - supports collector-base stress during flyback recovery without avalanche conduction |
| IC | 1.5 A - delivers peak vertical deflection current into reactive loads |
| PC | 25 W at TC = 25 °C - requires heatsinking for continuous operation above 10 W |
| hFE (H1) | 40–80 - enables stable base drive design with ±20% gain tolerance |
| fT | 4 MHz - sufficient for 15.7 kHz vertical scanning with margin for waveform fidelity |
| Cob | 50 pF - minimizes Miller effect distortion in high-dV/dt vertical sweep applications |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220-3LD (Case 340AT), lead-free, through-hole mounting with integral heat sink tab (collector-connected).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Base) | Current-controlled input node | Receives base drive current to modulate collector current; requires series resistor for current limiting |
| 2 (Collector) | Main power output terminal | Connected to flyback transformer primary; electrically tied to metal tab for thermal path |
| 3 (Emitter) | Reference return node | Provides low-impedance ground return for vertical deflection current loop |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TV vertical deflection optimized | SOA and thermal design validated for 60 Hz frame-rate pulsed load cycling |
| Complementary pair with KSA940 | Enables matched push-pull output stage with symmetric voltage/current handling |
| Pb-free and halide-free construction | Meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow compliance |
| TO-220-3LD mechanical outline | Standardized footprint compatible with legacy CRT service replacement tooling and fixtures |
Applications
| TV Vertical Deflection Output | High-Voltage Switching Regulator |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving vertical deflection yoke in CRT televisions requiring precise 60 Hz sawtooth current waveform. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Power switching transistor controlling yoke current ramp and flyback reset timing. Use Value: 150 V VCEO withstands flyback voltage spikes; 25 W dissipation sustains 100 ms pulse duty cycles. | Use Scenario: High-side switch in offline quasi-resonant DC-DC converters operating at ≤100 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching element regulating energy transfer via primary-side inductance. Use Value: 1.5 A IC and 4 MHz fT support efficient switching with minimal turn-off delay in 50–100 kHz range. |
| Legacy Display Repair | Analog Signal Amplifier Stage |
Use Scenario: Drop-in replacement for obsolete vertical output transistors in field-service CRT monitors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Direct-fit mechanical and electrical substitute preserving original board layout and bias network. Use Value: TO-220-3LD package and identical pinout (B-C-E) ensure zero PCB modification during repair. | Use Scenario: Linear Class-A amplifier in analog video signal reconstruction circuits. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage-controlled current source delivering stable emitter-follower output. Use Value: hFE = 40–80 provides predictable gain setting; low VCE(sat) ≤ 1 V maintains headroom for 12 V rail operation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN high-voltage switching transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| KSC2073H2TU | Higher hFE bin (60–125); otherwise identical ratings and package | Better suited for low-base-drive designs where gain margin is critical | Select H2 when base current budget is constrained or temperature drift compensation is required |
| MJE13005G | Same TO-220 package; VCEO = 400 V, IC = 4 A, PC = 75 W - higher voltage/current but lower fT (1 MHz) | More robust for flyback overvoltage events but less suitable for precise vertical linearity | Choose MJE13005G only if system-level flyback voltage exceeds 150 V or peak current >1.5 A |
Compared with KSC2073H1TU, the H2 variant offers improved DC gain consistency for tighter bias control, while MJE13005G trades bandwidth and gain linearity for higher voltage headroom and power handling-neither is pin-compatible, but both serve overlapping vertical/horizontal deflection roles in legacy CRT systems.

FAQ
What is the pin configuration of the KSC2073H1TU?
The KSC2073H1TU uses a TO-220-3LD package with standardized pinout: Pin 1 = Base, Pin 2 = Collector (connected to metal tab), Pin 3 = Emitter. This matches the marking diagram in the official onsemi datasheet (KSC2073/D, Rev. 3) and is mechanically identical to KSC2073TU and KSC2073H2TU variants. No alternate pinouts exist for this part number.
Is KSC2073H1TU still in active production?
No-KSC2073H1TU is discontinued per onsemi's official notice in the January 2026 revision of the KSC2073/D datasheet. While not recommended for new designs, Aetrix Electronics maintains limited legacy stock and supports repair-channel demand with full traceability and documentation for KSC2073H1TU.
How does KSC2073H1TU differ from KSC2073H2TU?
KSC2073H1TU and KSC2073H2TU share identical absolute maximum ratings, package, and marking format, differing only in hFE bin: H1 = 40–80, H2 = 60–125. Both meet the same TV vertical deflection performance specs, but H2 provides higher and wider DC current gain for designs needing greater base-current margin or reduced thermal drift sensitivity.
Can KSC2073H1TU be used as a direct replacement for KSC2073TU?
Yes-KSC2073H1TU is functionally and mechanically identical to KSC2073TU except for hFE binning. Both use TO-220-3LD packaging, share identical pinout, voltage/current ratings, and thermal specifications. The "H1" suffix denotes the specific gain group; no PCB or schematic changes are needed when substituting KSC2073H1TU for KSC2073TU in legacy repair contexts.
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for KSC2073H1TU?
The KSC2073H1TU has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) of 150 °C and storage temperature range of −55 °C to +150 °C. For reliable long-term operation, case temperature (TC) must remain ≤25 °C to sustain full 25 W dissipation; derating is required above that point per Figure 6 in the KSC2073/D datasheet. Thermal design must ensure adequate heatsinking to avoid exceeding TJ.
