Product details
Overview
TTC008(Q) from Toshiba is a silicon NPN bipolar transistor designed for high-voltage switching applications, featuring VCEO = 285 V, VCES = 600 V, hFE = 100–200 at IC = 0.3 A, and typ. fall time tf = 0.1 µs. It is used in high-speed DC-DC converters and switching voltage regulators where robust voltage handling and fast turn-off are critical.
For engineers reviewing the TTC008(Q) datasheet, TTC008(Q) pinout, TTC008(Q) application, or TTC008(Q) equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V collector-base breakdown rating, 1.1 W power dissipation in New PW-Mold2 package, and suitability for industrial power conversion circuits requiring reliable high-voltage switching.
Technical Context
The TTC008(Q) employs triple-diffused silicon construction to achieve high VCES (600 V) and stable hFE across operating current range. Its static gain is specified at two test points: hFE(1) ≥ 80 at VCE = 5 V, IC = 1 mA and hFE(2) ≥ 100 at VCE = 5 V, IC = 0.3 A.
Dynamic performance is characterized by fast switching: typ. rise time tr = 0.05 µs and fall time tf = 0.1 µs under defined test conditions. The device's safe operating area (SOA) is guaranteed up to Tj = 150 °C with pulsed IC = 3 A capability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 285 V - Maximum continuous collector-emitter voltage before breakdown under open-base condition |
| VCES | 600 V - Collector-emitter voltage with base shorted to emitter, enabling higher blocking in clamped-switching topologies |
| hFE | 100–200 - DC current gain at IC = 0.3 A ensures predictable base drive requirements in linear and switching modes |
| tf | 0.1 µs (typ.) - Fast fall time supports operation above 1 MHz in hard-switched SMPS designs |
| PC | 1.1 W - Power dissipation limit at Ta = 25 °C defines thermal design margin for PCB layout and heatsinking |
| Tj max | 150 °C - Maximum junction temperature sets derating curve for reliability in sustained high-power operation |
Pinout & Package
Package: New PW-Mold2 (TOSHIBA designation: 2-7J2S), surface-mount, 3-pin, 0.36 g typical weight.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| 3 | Emitter | Reference terminal for base drive and load return; tied to ground or low-side switch node in common-emitter configuration |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High VCES rating | 600 V enables use in 400 V DC bus systems with margin for voltage spikes and ringing |
| Controlled hFE spread | 100–200 range allows consistent base resistor selection across production lots without recalibration |
| Fast fall time | 0.1 µs typ. reduces switching losses during turn-off, improving efficiency in high-frequency converters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage NPN switching transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2SC5707 | VCEO = 250 V, VCES = 500 V, hFE = 80–160, tf = 0.15 µs | Lower voltage ratings reduce margin in 400 V systems; slower fall time increases switching loss | Acceptable where 50 V headroom is sufficient and frequency ≤ 200 kHz |
| BU508AF | VCEO = 1500 V, VCES = 1500 V, hFE = 5–25, tf = 0.5 µs | Higher voltage but much lower hFE and slower switching; requires larger base drive and heatsinking | Suitable only when extreme voltage isolation is required and speed is secondary |
Compared with 2SC5707 and BU508AF, the TTC008(Q) delivers optimal balance of 600 V blocking, 100–200 hFE, and 0.1 µs tf, making it preferred for 100–500 kHz industrial SMPS where both voltage margin and switching efficiency matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector-emitter voltage rating for TTC008(Q)?
The TTC008(Q) has a maximum continuous collector-emitter voltage rating of VCEO = 285 V under open-base conditions. This rating is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and applies at Ta = 25 °C with derating above that ambient temperature. Exceeding this voltage risks avalanche breakdown and permanent device failure.
Does TTC008(Q) support high-frequency switching applications?
Yes, the TTC008(Q) supports high-frequency switching with a typical fall time tf of 0.1 µs and rise time tr of 0.05 µs. These values enable reliable operation up to 500 kHz in hard-switched topologies. Its triple-diffused structure also enhances secondary breakdown immunity, critical for repetitive high-dV/dt stress in such applications.
What package type is used for TTC008(Q)?
The TTC008(Q) uses the New PW-Mold2 package, designated by Toshiba as 2-7J2S. It is a surface-mount, 3-pin molded plastic package weighing 0.36 g (typical). Pin 1 is Base, Pin 2 is Collector, and Pin 3 is Emitter - verified in the "Packaging and Internal Circuit" section of the official datasheet.
How does the DC current gain (hFE) of TTC008(Q) vary with collector current?
The TTC008(Q) specifies hFE = 100–200 at IC = 0.3 A and VCE = 5 V. At lower IC = 1 mA, hFE is ≥ 80. This gain profile ensures stable base drive design across operating ranges. The hFE variation is documented in Figure 7.2 (hFE vs. IC) of the datasheet, showing monotonic decrease above 0.5 A.
Is TTC008(Q) RoHS compliant?
Yes, the TTC008(Q) is RoHS compliant. Per the marking note in the datasheet, underlined lot numbers indicate [[G]]/RoHS COMPATIBLE or [[G]]/RoHS [[Pb]] status. Toshiba confirms environmental compliance per Directive 2011/65/EU, and RoHS documentation is available through authorized Toshiba sales representatives.
