Product details
Overview
KSD2058YTSTU from ON Semiconductor (formerly Fairchild) is an NPN epitaxial silicon power transistor in TO-220F package, rated for 60 V VCEO, 3 A IC, and 25 W PC at TC = 25°C, with hFE 100–200 (Y-class), used in low-frequency power amplifier and switching applications such as relay drivers and motor control stages.
For engineers reviewing the KSD2058YTSTU datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include verified VCE(sat) ≤ 1.5 V at IC = 2 A / IB = 0.2 A, safe operating area compliance up to 100 mS pulse width, and thermal derating behavior under finite heat sink conditions.
Technical Context
This device operates as a medium-power, low-frequency bipolar junction transistor optimized for linear amplification and saturated switching. Its design emphasizes robust DC current gain (hFE = 100–200 at VCE = 5 V, IC = 0.5 A) and low saturation voltage (VCE(sat) = 1.5 V max), supported by a maximum junction temperature of 150°C and storage range from –55°C to +150°C.
The KSD2058YTSTU features a TO-220F package with insulated tab, enabling direct mounting to heatsinks without electrical isolation hardware. Its fT of 0.4 MHz confirms suitability for audio and industrial control frequencies-not RF or high-speed digital switching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 60 V - Maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown under open-base condition; defines safe DC rail limit in amplifier or switch designs. |
| IC | 3 A - Continuous collector current rating; usable up to 3 A with adequate heatsinking per derating curve. |
| PC (TC = 25°C) | 25 W - Maximum power dissipation at case temperature 25°C; requires thermal interface and heatsink for sustained operation. |
| hFE (Y-class) | 100–200 - Confirmed DC current gain range at VCE = 5 V, IC = 0.5 A; enables predictable base drive sizing in linear or saturated operation. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.5 V max at IC = 2 A, IB = 0.2 A - Low saturation voltage reduces conduction loss in switching applications like solenoid or lamp drivers. |
| tON/tF | 0.65 µs each - Verified turn-on and fall times under defined resistive load (RL = 15 Ω, VCC = 30 V); supports ~1.5 MHz square-wave operation in non-critical timing circuits. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220F (insulated flange), 3-lead, vertical mounting with metal tab electrically isolated from collector. Dimensions comply with JEDEC TO-220 standard; flange thickness 1.47 mm max, lead pitch 2.54 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Left) | Base | Current-controlled input terminal; requires ≥0.2 A base drive for full saturation at 2 A collector load. |
| 2 (Center) | Collector | Main current path output; connected to heatsink via insulated tab; electrically isolated from mounting surface. |
| 3 (Right) | Emitter | Reference node for base-emitter bias and collector current return; typically grounded or tied to low-side switch node. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Y-class hFE binning | Guaranteed 100–200 hFE at test conditions-enables consistent gain matching across production units in multi-stage amplifiers. |
| TO-220F insulated package | Electrically isolated metal tab allows direct heatsink mounting without mica washers or insulating pads-reducing thermal resistance and assembly cost. |
| Low VCE(sat) | ≤1.5 V at IC = 2 A ensures <3 W conduction loss in saturated switching-critical for thermally constrained relay or fan driver PCBs. |
| SOA compliance | Validated safe operating area up to 100 ms pulse width at 60 V/3 A-supports inductive load switching with snubber-free design in many industrial controls. |
Applications
| Audio Power Amplifier Stage | DC Motor Driver (Low-Speed) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Single-ended Class-A or Class-AB output stage in 10–20 W audio amplifiers driving 4–8 Ω speakers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN power transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MJD2058G | Same die, TO-263 (D²PAK) package; higher RθJC (1.5°C/W vs. 0.9°C/W), no insulated tab. | Requires PCB copper pour or external insulator for heatsink mounting; less suitable for chassis-mounted metal heatsinks. | Select when surface-mount assembly is required and thermal interface can be managed via large copper area. |
| BD241C | Lower hFE (25–250, wide spread), higher VCE(sat) (1.8 V typ), same TO-220 package but non-insulated tab. | Needs higher base drive; requires isolation hardware for heatsink mounting; less predictable gain in linear stages. | Select only if cost sensitivity outweighs gain consistency and thermal integration needs. |
Compared with MJD2058G and BD241C, the KSD2058YTSTU offers superior thermal integration via its insulated TO-220F package and tighter hFE binning-making it preferred for production audio amplifiers and industrial relay modules where reliability and thermal predictability are critical.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed hFE range for KSD2058YTSTU?
The KSD2058YTSTU is Y-class binned with a guaranteed DC current gain (hFE) of 100–200 when measured at VCE = 5 V and IC = 0.5 A. This tight binning ensures predictable base drive requirements and consistent performance across production lots of the KSD2058YTSTU in amplifier and switching circuits.
Is KSD2058YTSTU compatible with TO-220 heatsinks?
Yes-the KSD2058YTSTU uses a TO-220F package with an electrically insulated metal tab, allowing direct mechanical and thermal attachment to standard TO-220 heatsinks without additional insulating hardware. This feature simplifies thermal design and improves reliability compared to non-insulated variants like standard TO-220.
What is the maximum continuous collector current for KSD2058YTSTU?
The KSD2058YTSTU is rated for a continuous collector current (IC) of 3 A at case temperature TC = 25°C. Operation at higher currents requires active heatsinking and adherence to the published power derating curve, which reduces allowable dissipation linearly above 25°C case temperature.
Does KSD2058YTSTU support pulse operation beyond its DC ratings?
Yes-the KSD2058YTSTU's Safe Operating Area (SOA) chart confirms pulsed operation up to 100 ms at 60 V and 3 A. Pulse width, voltage, and current must remain within the SOA boundary; for example, 10 ms pulses at 40 V/2.5 A are permissible without secondary breakdown risk in the KSD2058YTSTU.
What is the typical VCE(sat) of KSD2058YTSTU under switching conditions?
The KSD2058YTSTU exhibits a maximum VCE(sat) of 1.5 V when operated at IC = 2 A and IB = 0.2 A. Typical values are lower (~1.2 V), enabling efficient saturated switching in relay drivers and low-speed motor controllers where conduction loss must be minimized in the KSD2058YTSTU.
