MMBTA56LT1G Discrete Semiconductor Products

Transistors - Bipolar (BJT) - Single

The MMBTA56LT1G is a PNP single-bipolar transistor with a maximum collector current of 0.5 A. Its maximum collector-emitter voltage is 30V and its guaranteed transition frequency is 190MHz. This device is specifically designed for high performance, low power applications.

Application Field

The MMBTA56LT1G is commonly used for small signal switching and digital applications such as drivers, amplifiers, and motor drivers. It is also great for general-purpose switching applications where a low-cost solution is desired. It is especially suited for automotive applications where low power consumption, fast response time, and high-fidelity are critical.

Working Principle

As with any other bipolar junction transistor (BJT), the MMBTA56LT1G operates using the principles of charge coupling and current flow. In brief, the capacitor formed between the emitter and collector plays a key role in the operation of the transistor. When the base is biased, the movement of charge carriers (holes and electrons) is controlled by the magnitude of the current being applied to the base. This modulates the current flow between the emitter and collector, allowing the device to be used in either an amplification or switching circuit.

In terms of switching speed, the MMBTA56LT1G switch is capable of responding to changes in its base voltage in a fraction of a millionth of a second. This makes it a suitable choice for applications where speed is of utmost importance, such as in optical communications systems.
