The STS01DTP06 is a hybrid complementary NPN and
PNP bipolar transistor manufactured using the latest
low voltage planar technology.
Extremely efficient performance is obtained by combining
high pulse current, excellent gain and fast speed,
resulting in low losses in high frequency applications.
In fact, the STS01DTP06 offers a 30V NPN and PNP
combination supporting a continuous collector current
of 3A and the minimum gain of the two transistors
is 100 at 1A collector current. These features make
the new device ideal for switching circuits including
converters, motor drivers, relay and solenoid drivers
and buffers.
In these applications a MOSFET or an IGBT is used
as a switch, therefore it is necessary that the
gate driver circuitry charges and discharges the
gate capacitance as rapidly as possible. The output
stages of the switch mode controller ICs are rarely
able to drive these power switches adequately. Consequently,
the STS01DTP06 can be used in push-pull or totem
pole circuit topologies in order to provide an interface
between the logic controller and the switch.
The transistor elements are fully independent so
that higher assembly flexibility is guaranteed and
any possible interference between them is avoided.
