NXP Semiconductors offers its BC5/6xPAS family in a DFN2020 package for external linear voltage regulation

These DFN2020 medium-power transistors from NXP are released as a space saving replacement for the standard BCX5/6 and BCP5/6 series in SOT223 and SOT89. With an occupied PCB mounting area of 2.3 mm x 2.1 mm, they are much smaller while improving the power dissipation capabilities on multi-layer PCBs.

The AEC-Q101 qualified DFN2020 package is designed to use the full potential of small silicon dies. It improves the thermal performance by using a maximized collector mounting pad and a low thermal resistance design for an optimized heat transfer and packing density designs asking for high packing density.

Features and Benefits        
  •     VCEO of 20 V to 80 V, IC of 1-2 A; AECQ-101 qualified
  •     Small leadless plastic package using just 2.3 mm x 2.1 mm board space
  •     DFN2020D version with 100% solderable sidepads, suitable for automatic optical inspection (AOI)
  •     Thin lead frame to reduce Rth(j-sp)
  •     Big collector mounting pad directly under the transistor die to remove the heat from the BJT to the PCB
  •     Space saving alternative to BCP5x and BCX5x for ballast transistors and load switches on a multitude of processors or system basis chips based designs
Applications       
  •     Linear voltage regulators
  •     Load switches
  •     Battery-driven devices
  •     Power management
  •     MOSFET drivers
  •     Amplifiers

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa...

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin...

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
