The BSS138LT1 is a N-channel enhancement mode field-effect transistor (FET) designed for use in applications where low voltage, low current, and fast switching speeds are required. This discrete semiconductor component is housed in a SOT-23 package, making it compact and suitable for space-constrained designs.
Key features of the BSS138LT1 include a maximum drain-source voltage of 50V, a continuous drain current of 220mA, and a low threshold voltage of around 1.5V. It also has a low on-resistance of typically 4.5 ohms, which allows for efficient power handling and minimal power dissipation.
This FET is ideal for use in various electronic circuits, such as power management, signal amplification, and voltage regulation. Its small size, low voltage operation, and high-speed switching capabilities make it a versatile component for a wide range of applications in industries like consumer electronics, automotive, and telecommunications
